The words are beautiful...the image is also lovely...I think that face goes well with your words and I just love how one eye is closed.

Thanks for the comment.
Actually I used my cat, Seizonsha, [aka Sha-sha] whose name is Japanese for "Survivor" as a metaphor for my own life. So in truth, I was really writing about myself, but I used her in the trashcan as the visual, simply because I have related to her little kitty life, because she's had it very rough since before she was adopted to my home, and even thereafter with a lot of health issue. She already had the one eye when we got her, and some vet that the foster people took her to never really did that great of a job on the surgery, so we are always cleaning it, and so some complications are respiratory issues, allergies etc. She also has had UTI [Urinary Tract Infection], but her brother has it recurringly! And the other main thing is she actually has IBS [Irritible Bowel Syndrome] so food is a huge problem, and we are always trying to keep her healthy.
Luckily, she thinks she's healthy, and THAT does help! She doesn't really *seem* to think she's sick, or at least it hasn't slowed her down much. She's an amazing kitty, with tons of energy. A side that's all over the place and into everything and with you in everything you do, and then a sweet cuddly side.
However, though the poem could have been about her, I used her physically, to describe my life, metaphorically.
I'm sorry to hear about your loving cat Chamberlain! I'm sure you don't mind taking care of him, after all the companionship and love he's shown over the years... I DO understand. I wish you and Chamberlain the best. Many Kitty snuggles and to you both, from Tea, Sha-sha, and Jikan. ^.^
