From Cat's Eyes

I lay on the window sill,
eyes latched to the winged creatures.
Halt! Ears hear the approach
of the two legged ones.

I remain still,
looking for my favorite human's features.
New people encroach.
Run! Run! Run!

Safe under their sleeping quarter,
I wait for the threat to leave.
My human comes to visit,
but I will not relent to pets.

I wish their stay was shorter,
but finally I am relieved.
They are done with their business.
To the food I jet!
