Things That Bang- - LoveLorn StarWars Way

Things That Bang

The animals were imperfect,
long-tailed,
unfortunate in their heads.
Little by little they
put themselves together,
making themselves a landscape,
acquiring spots, grace, flight.
The cat,
only the cat
appeared complete and proud:
he was born completely finished,
walking alone and knowing what he wanted.
... the cat
only wants to be a cat
and any cat is a cat
from his whiskers to his tail,
from his hopeful vision of a rat
to the real thing,
from the night to his golden eyes. (Pablo Neruda, "Ode To The Cat")

Wow. is this being posted to make me feel better about my letter - um, because it most certainly did. I don't think I referenced any fictional characters in mine and certain none with a known geek following ...

I won't say anymore in case
the source is close
to you - even if
in a galaxy
far
far
away ...
