Cemetery Cat II

There's nothing
he doesn't know—
the cat on the stove
—Fusei
***
Between boiled barley
and romance, the female cat
has grown thin
—Basho
***
Out from the darkness
back into the darkness—
affairs of the cat
—Issa
***
Now cat's done
mewing—bedroom's
touched by moonlight
—Basho
***
—Medusa
