The Cat’s Tale.
Soman Ragavan said:
My comments on the poem \"The cat’s tale” by David Wakeling.
The title is like some of Chaucer’s poems (c1340-1400), in “The Canterbury Tales,” eg The Nun’s Tale, The Miller’s Tale, etc.
Many of the points mentioned in the poem can relate to human life as well : difficulty of movements in old age; obstacles appearing more daunting with advancing age; things look as in a haze; losing hair (fur); difficulty in hearing; slowed movements (“I would leap and purr”); difficulty in escaping from arising dangers (nowhere to hide on the old bridge); predators prowling around.

Tragedy ages the heart before its time. I have a daughter who has addictions. She will not get better. I felt a connection to these words.

It was fun to read but it was “real “ to be aware that you got knicked a bit cuz you ask why with a razored phrase and perhaps slant of eye. Too cool.

.... life\'s realities can cause one to question the name, the symbols, the religion, the mirage we deemed our moral compass, I believe it is at that time we are at our closest to god.

Standing on a tight rope juggling broken glass.
Norman Flagtea said:
Juggling broken glass is a nice image. And the whole poem touches upon feelings most of us have had at certain times. Very painful... Well written, David

It’s different each read. Great writing. I usually never ask but it is one time I’d hope you might share your intentions?
