final thought
Dedicated to Sarah E.
- The
naming of Cats is a difficult matter,
- It
isn't just one of your holiday games;
- You
may think at first I'm as mad as a hatter
- When
I tell you a cat must have THREE DIFFERENT NAMES.
- .............
- When
you notice a cat in profound meditation,
- The
reason, I tell you, is always the same:
- His
mind is engaged in a rapt contemplation
- Of
the thought, of the thought, of the thought of his name:
- His
ineffable effable
- Effanineffable
- Deep
and inscrutable singular name.
