Once upon a smooth night sailing,<\/p>\n
the edge was found of the world.<\/p>\n
Where moon had the sun suspended<\/p>\n
and light fell deep and fathomless dark.<\/p>\n
Spinning on a disk with no ending,<\/p>\n
all planetoids much the same.<\/p>\n
Like plates, twirling, whirling,<\/p>\n
the oceans sloshed and continents jiggled,<\/p>\n
on their sleepy molten beds<\/p>\n
and hanging, suspended off the edge<\/p>\n
was what every cat had ever knocked.<\/p>\n
A hairtie, a wrench, some string,<\/p>\n
a figurine, a d20(an 18, good luck perhaps?)<\/p>\n
and my magazines. Such a strange and silly thing,<\/p>\n
a flat world without curves.<\/p>\n
So that is why the cats enjoy<\/p>\n
knocking things off the edge.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
