STONED CAT


Greeting Hairballers,

I’m doing NaPoWriMo, a poem a day for National Poetry Month.

Most of what I’ve written is terrible, but today, I handed it over to the cat, Benchley.

Here we go:

Prompt:  Write in lune form, a type of haiku.  3 stanzas:  1) 3 words, 2) 5 words, 3) 3 words

STONED CAT

         R. Benchley, H.C.

snort the catnip
then roll on the floor
stoned and happy

oblivion not far
why do I do this?
because I can

BDA--thanks for the ”because they can,” years ago.  I’ve finally found a way to use it.
