A Woman's Plight, Alex (An Ideal)

Dear Alex,

“You know that there’s no me comin’ back to you, now that I’ve caught trace of my ideal.

Problem is, apparently my ideal is enshrouded in silence.

That’s how I seem to keep picken’ and persuin’ them

But I think that maybe there has been a method to my madness, after all.

Maybe, long ago, my love and I were separated by such a spell.

And ever since then, I keep pausing and waiting, to see if he will emerge through a man who matches his energy.”

“I don’t know for sure…

But when I just had a cat, things were different.

Now that I have dogs, they are more dependant.

But once they are walked, they will laze on the floor.

And the simplicity of this exchange makes me feel resentment when getting yowled at because a cat is bored.

Which then implies that the cat must also be ‘run.’

But getting his stroller in and out of the house is a real chore.”
