Measuring the Remainder of Your Life in Kittens

by Mary E. Lowd


Stepping through
Toward you
As glass shatters
And time scatters

Time can be counted in kittens
Mathematical strictures
Imposed
We know
Each kitten becomes a cat
And each one lasts
A feline lifespan

Count them up, divide the years
Then multiply by the weeks
We measure youth in
