Caturday Poetry: The Feline Experience

I envy the cat’s life – 
Whether it be small cats
Big cats domesticated
Wild or feral
It’s simple – 
No bills taxes jobs
Coffee shops or schools – 
Maybe a hairball
Now and then – 
I too wish to sleep
All day without a
Care in the world
But that’s the
Feline experience – 
Not the human experience – 
Experiences are overrated
I prefer to stay home
With my cats
