Kissi is mad again

Kissi is mad again.

Her tail is swinging back and forth

like a wild metronome set to a funky beat.

The look on her face is so seriously intense,

A little lioness hunting in her livingroom jungle.

Ferociously, with pinprick claws flexing,

she sneaks on silky pussyfeet,

stalking her unwitting quarry.  

Her eyes too big for her face,

she measures and remeasures,

the distance she will need to pounce.

Her little behind wiggles as she tries to

judge the moment, to pick the perfect second,

to strike at the thing that has aroused

her instincts so greatly.

It is such a silly sight to see

her attack so fearlessly, Dudes wagging tail.

To watch her try so hard to be intimidating,

spitting and clawing with enthusiastic relentlessness.

And then to be rolled over and cleaned moistly and

thoroughly by our Old English Sheep Dog,

who, I must say, was not that impressed

by her display of kittenly courage at all.
