Cat adopts
the position
of a Sphinx
on the windowsill
yawns &
releases
a moon
that settles
on top of
a geranium
creating a perfect
picture
which as if
by magic
he then takes
himself out of
leaving the moon
just where he yawned it
balanced
still
on the top of the potted plant
only an invisible miaow
betraying
where
it had been.
