Close your eyes -
Landlord knocking
On the back door.
A quiet Autumn night
and these fools
Are starting to argue
Lonely brickwalls in Detroit
Sunday afternoon
piss call
O for Vermont again -
The barn on an Autumn night
Fiddlydee! -
Another day,
Another something-or-other!
Whatever it is, I quit
-now I'll let my
breath out -
How many cats they need
around here
For any orgy?
Tonight I'll lower
my tail --
I've seen them around town
In Haikkaido a cat
has no luck
Every cat in Kyoto
can see through the fog.
The birds start singing
but he is in the cat meadows
I'll climb up a tree
and scratch Katapatafataya
If I go out now,
my paws
will get wet
A car is coming but
the cat knows
It's not a snake
In London-town cats
can sleep
In the butcher's doorway.
I should have scratched
that spot before
I started to sleep
Haiku my eyes!
my mother is calling!
