Dog Says, Cat Says

 

Dog says:
What do you do?

Cat says:
We do not

We are.

Dog says:
Where are you going?

Cat says:
Nowhere

We are here, now.

Dog says:
Must be doing this now
Must be hurrying to places
Where I am not
No time, no time!

Cat says
Time?

There is plenty of

Time.

Just be here

Now.

Dog says:
Follow the tracks
Sniff, sniff
Dig here
Dig big
Dig now!

Cat says:
Do not dig

Stroke the ground

Thus

Thus

Cover your tracks.

Dog says:
Run, run
Bark
Catch
Tear
Chew!

Cat says:
Silently

Silently

Wait

Pounce

Play.

Dog says:
My people,
How I love my people!

Cat says:
I may stay

For a while.
