Lost, found

Neighborhood wallpapered
light poles
bus stop shelters
shop doors

‘Lost cat’
every week, every day
new signs, different cats

Neighborhood social media
exacerbates frenzy
hysterical ‘owners’
angsty postings, pleadings

‘Lost cat’
every week, every day
new signs, different cats

The cats all come home
lost, now found

Seems there is a wise
Basset Hound
around the corner who
knows Zen
has a side gig
selling catnip
out of his human’s
garage-bound
old Buick
