Options

Black stone in my pocket
quiet
awaiting
Claws outstretched
Every time I close my eyes
Swoops down on its prey

Blue stone in my drawer
Like a pillow
Every time I try to reach it
Guardian in my head saying
Not now
They're not ready yet
Touch the purring softness
Give it some time

Death is a cat
