Comes right up to the window—
Charlie whomps the glass.

Torn Curtain

Rip, not flaw, made by
Ornithology student
with unclipped, sharp claw.

We have cats,
but despite this fact,
we have mice–
in the walls,
ceiling, fireplace–scurrying,
driving us all nuts.

Please note, that
baits have been set out …
now we wait,
hating we
have to kill them; still, it will
be nice when they’re gone.

There’s a mouse
up in the ceiling,
or the floor,
if you’re on
the next level–either way,
some cause for concern.

and “Did you feed them?”
