THE CAT RESEARCHER
THE STUDIOUS CAT AMONGST HIS PAPERS
“Find out the reason that commands you to write; see whether it has spread its roots into the very depth of your heart; confess to yourself you would have to die if you were forbidden to write.” ― Rainer Maria Rilke

REFLECTION BY THE SEA IN ROCKPORT
MUTABILITY
Mixed along the earth's age sand
Along a Northern beach
Are fragments of another time
Once possessors of this land.
Whose blue tinged Canton ware?
Given in love?
Possessed in pride?
Now lies along the lonely strand.
Perhaps they sleep
In
the churchyard above the beach
A
Whipple, a Haskel, a Poole, or a Tar?
They keep their silence also
Their secrets of their shattered life's vessel
As
the shattered pottery
Scattered by the immutable sea.
