If it’s just one time

One cat

In a cardboard box

In a dark alleyway

It can scare humans

It can scare creatures

Innate, concentrate

In concrete desolate

But, Heaven sent chance

An invite to dance

To watch a cat prance,

Nuzzle, for its happy

Watch it close its eyes and blink

For it is safe

It is happy

But for every cat in an alley

In a box

In pain

There are a million who watch

Watch, and avoid the strain
