Talismanic Poem

My Black Cat sits there staring at me,

I sit there staring back at it,

My Black Cat is not alive,

I am not sure if I’m alive,

My Black Cat cannot move,

I am told off for fidgeting,

My Black Cat does not have a brain,

I have a brain but I don’t use it much,

My Black Cat does not remember,

I remember buying the Black Cat

My Black Cat only has me as a friend,

I have plenty of friends including it,

The Black Cat is important to me,

I am not important to it.
