Escaping the Maze
For the longest time,
I have been the mouse
chasing after the cat,
battered away time and again,
toyed with repeatedly,
simply a side attraction,
an amusing game to play
until boredom sets in
and ignorance becomes
the newest pass time.
And now I limp to my hole,
battered and bruised,
done with this vicious cycle
I keep pushing myself through.
No longer will I reach
for the delicious cheese
wedged between the supple lips
of this feline,
for the fangs
have cut me too many times.
I shall escape this maze
while I still can,
what's left with my tail
between my legs.
But at least I'll be alive
to some degree.
This will probably be the last post I make in a while, as I am working at Johnsonburg right now. I'll post when I can and hope to produce more work soon.
