Trinity the poet
Heatwave Haikus
Holy shit I am not made for this heat, guys
I AM WEARING A FUR COAT EVERY SINGLE DAY OF THE YEAR
Here is how I feel about the stupid humans (not my owner, she’s OK, I mean the bald rich ones);
You’re as cold as ice
You’re willing to sacrifice our love
You never take advice
Someday you’ll pay the price
You’re as cold as ice
Nothing I do will suffice
You heat up, heat up
There’s no bringing you down
The world is screaming
You are deaf, dumb, unhearing
Open your eyes, now
Your ears, your heart, our world is burning
All the dreams we have
They mean nothing, if there is no future
All the hopes we have
They will never be, if there is no tomorrow
I’m hot
I’m melting
I have a fur coat that I can’t take off
Please stop taking private jets to your private islands full of private jokes and private jesters
The rest of us are suffering while you redefine the new limits of selfishness
My drunken thoughts (if I could drink)
Oh, but, my dear,
there is no mouse in here!
Even Mr USB Mouse knows
There is no tail without a nose
Could you please quiet down?
I can’t hear myself frown
~
You are my baby
My angel of life
The ying to my yang
The cotton to my bud
The pillow to my case
The spring to my roll
The milk to my tea
The yes to my please
~
I’m sorry, did you say MEOW?
I’m afraid we don’t have any of those right now.
Could you come back again later when the Manager has woken up?
Should be in an hour or so.
Thanks.

Up, up, and away
Far from the milky way,
Here, we have catnip
But not Earth catnip…
An otherworldly catnip
Listen carefully
Blossoming catnip
Evolving catnip
Heavenly catnip
9-life-long catnip
Forever catnip
You heard me
We have it
See you soon
~
WAS THAT A SHADOW?
A BIRD? A PLANE? A BAT? A FAT CAT?
LOOK, WHATEVER IT WAS,
I WANT IT.
NOW.
~
Daytime sucks.
Darkness… now you’re talking.
~
The forest echoes with laughter
The midnight sun resonates with howls
The starlight is my guide, as I make my way through the leaves and weaves and roots
There is still time to change the path
The night sky makes me wonder
What if I was a fierce lioness?
Will I be a goddess next?
Am I one now?
~
MOUSE!!!
That was definitely a mouse.

If I had opposable thumbs, I would play the solo from Stairway to Heaven even better than Led Zeppelin.

Cheers *holds up shot of milk*
What brings you around these parts?
Your owner scared of losing you, too?
Yeah… me too.
I escape through my dreams to join the other cats here
Hear me out, I’m not complaining at all.
I love my life. It’s clean, simple, easy, everything is brought to me.
But I know there is more.
My owner, she dreams a lot.
She’s not the only one. I love her to bits, but my gosh!
If humans could just open their eyes and realise that everyone and everything on Earth dreams, maybe they would finally stop going to war against each other.
They might even finally realise that their lack of knowledge about the depths of the Oceans, and of Memories, Dreams, and their own Mind… might actually be the final frontier.
Not space, at least, not yet.
Why can’t they get beyond the Moon?
Exactly.
Because they haven’t understood travel yet.
Not like us.
Not like the trees.
Travelling across the Earth without even moving a leaf.
Networks upon networks, wireless before wires even existed.
Astral projection and quantum physics were here and there before humans ever came along.
Anyway.
Time to go home, she’ll be waking up soon.
Same. Seeya soon.
