There is a knocking sound coming from the refrigerator
I listen to the heavy breathing of my cat
Curled up behind me on the couch
Resting on her white blanket
Maybe she knows I am writing about her
She lifts her head up and squints
Maybe it is the noise coming from the kitchen
The knocking noises mimic the scurrying of mice
Random, faint, clicks and scratches
Like a voice calling to kitty
Get up and play.
