STREET CAT
I am a street cat, the street was my home
I ate my bread and drank my water in it
To servive I drew my nails
In stairs, in shelters, on roofs
I made my bed for the night
When dogs were barking
I hid in rubish bins
When they stopped I countinued
And today I am a tired street cat
Looking for a house female cat
To curl up with her,
to be wraped with her, to fondle
In twilight
And today I am a tired street cat
Looking for a female cat from a good home
So if you see one
Passing by
Tell her there is a cat free for love
I am a street cat, in the street I was a king
But slowly through the years
The neighbours changed
And there is no one today to open a door
Between car wheels
I twisted to keep on living
More than once I saw my end coming
And when the predators chased after me
I climbed the trees
Until fury passes
And today I am a tired street cat...
