The cat's one green eye arches like a comet
deep into my forehead, searches so furiously
I can only gape back into the sealed tomb
where sight was seized to bestow prophesy
or hyper vigilance. I will never know fully
but the void in its face beseeches me
to confess all things filled with spirit,
the missing eye a star shimmering
out of sight beyond the veils
of limitation, disability, handicap, oddity,
unfathomable, invincible, unrelenting
unlucky, weird, odd, and strange,
how it appears once more under ruse
of hello, hola, shalom, salam.
