I have been getting into fights with my cat recently.

I tell her no, no, no.

Sitting there pouting it out.
My cat leaves with a growl.

I resumed an activity.
Ignoring my surroundings.
Gaining major progress.
It was too late to try and dodge it.

Until...

The cat crept past.
Right under my nose.
Knocking everything over, as if she had been playing dominos.

Objects fall to a smash.
An exasperated gasp.
The cat ran past.
I swear, I caught a glimpse of a mischievous laugh.

Why? Why? Why?

Oh!

Why? Why? Why?

The day turns over while I sleep.
Tossing around like a freak. Drowning out even the slightest peep.
The trance becomes deep.

Awoken to a crash.
Did something just smash?
Do I need to go investigate?
There's no time left to saturate.
Grabbing a pair of scissors, I depart into the fissure.

Ah. You...
