Temptation and the Territorial Imperative.

The cat is in the window
watching porn on BIRDTV.
 
Her nose is pressed into the screen
she could no closer be...
 
The sparrows at the feeder
have her quivering with lust.
 
She has herself under control
but barely... only just...
 
The other day we went outside
Pearl lounged beside the bird bath.
 
The leafy shade Moringa made
concealed her from the foot path.
 
When 'nother cat came wand'ring by
'twere more  than she could bear.
 
She puffed herself to twice her size
and stiffened every hair.
 
She took up the chase in an awful haste
'twas a surprise to me.
 
The furry little cannonbal  
was quick as Mercury..
 
Down the lane Miss Pearl pursued
the luckless young intruder...
 
Who'd crossed her hidden boundary
and she couldn't have been ruder.
 
We've come back to the crux, now
of this conversation
 
She's learning how to navigate through
'most all situations...
