Natrium Child
Stray cats follow me,
following me
out to sea.
They will seethe
and never leave.
Seraphim sing to me,
above the trees;
wings of silken honey.
They will remain
and never leave.
Harps bombard me,
waves of putrid sound
stain so serene.
What do they mean?
They never leave.
At shoreline and sea,
we are at peace;
cats and I;
all naked and bloodied,
so it stings our hides.
Stray cats follow me.
Followed me
for many years;
my glass eyes remain
as cats lap up my tears.
