Friend or Foe


Open the front door.
He’s watching and waiting.
He’s staring
His thought balloon is telling me,
Hey! Feed me!
You can’t touch me.
I don’t trust you.
But, I trust you will fill 
My white paper plate.
I’m the mischievous meower.
I’m the alpha.
I got rid of all my competition,
The two others know they should stay away.
I’m the triumphant tabby 
I’m your not so friendly feral feline.
Hey! Feed me!
