The Interloper
Seen only by other felines
He skulks through the shadows
At most ungodly hours
Spewing noxious vapor down alleyways
And deserted parking lots
But with nostrils flared upward
Inhales light from heaven
A denizen of darkness
Not quite one species nor another
Camouflaged by gaps in our common continuum
Trees speak to him as do rocks and bodies of water
Inscribing human sin upon memory
For they recognize a missing link
Who yearns to exhort:
Skip one step in evolution
Dare to cross this burning bridge
Before its embers are dispersed beyond retrieval
Anachronistic friend, join those few on yonder ridge!
Don't be shy, REPLY!
