The cat does not care that I’m meditating.
She cares that I am warm and seated and still.
I pretend that I am ignoring her and notice
when I pretend not to notice I am pretending.
She settles in my lap. I notice how
this act seems to involve the whole world.
All day, I consider how powerful an act
to touch someone. how even the sky leans in.
“…how even the sky leans in.” Loverly & sublime.
Did this ending surprise you?
It did! But, in fact, that was exactly what was happening.
