Lost Among The Cats

Lost among the cats

Sugar in mind

Remembering what two men said

Seeing a written sign

Two men follow

One in London

One in the District

 

The Dollar Man

He laughs

Counts

Smiles at me

With I’ll Get Over

 

The Romantic Man

He arises

Writes

Smiles at The Dollar Man

With definitive understanding

 

Sugar enjoys before

Don’t remember the professors

Or last night nurses

Or who is on stage

 

Lost among the cats

Repeating a reassuring phrase

Helping me now

But the innocence

Don’t know if its

Changed

True

Or written on a card
