I love my darling little ragdoll kitty Rama
a beautiful flame point color
He reminds me of sunrise
orange auburn rays
pouncing across
pearl white early morning skies
Following me into the bedroom
he sprawls across the desk and
under my computer
tenderly I scratch his furry head
we rub cold eskimo noses and I can’t help
noticing how his breath is so very much
like mine
Sweet air rushing in
like the tide and gently ebbing
listening closely to his breath
makes me wonder
how on earth
can we slaughter
and eat anything that
has breath like us
Tears fall from Rama’s eyes
tears for our brother animals
tears for Rama
Most apt. Received a call from my ex/gf that her dog was keeping her awake. I bought him to my home and he has been lazily sleeping for the last couple of hour.
Haha very funny Ron. By the way I'm vegetarian so no fishy breath.
Seriously though, the poem addresses the premise that as evolving human beings (unless we have a serious medical issue that requires meat)we can make choices to eat foods that are peacefully and painlessly obtained. The cat is naturally carnivorous so it's not a matter of choice.
I might add that at the end of the poem - "Tears fall from Rama's eyes"
I was referring to the Hindu God Rama as well as the God within the kitty Rama.
Peaceful Blessings

I couldn't help thinking that maybe you are on a diet of cat food. ;-) Too many tunafish sandwiches will do that, I think. ;-) Fish breath?
On the other hand, I don't know of any cats who are vegetarians.
