Cat's don't go out with the dogs.
It's not their business
to jump, bark and act crazy.

Their business -
to sit, stare, sleep all day.
To prove who is really
the center of the universe.

To break the silence of night
with frightful sounds.
Demand a snack
when dinner's been served.

Standing guard at windows
sleeping in the sun
watching clouds float by
important business for cats.
