"Kitty and bug", by John Hollander
I a
cat who
coated in a
dense shadow
which I cast
along myself
absorb the
light you
gaze at me
with can yet
look at a king
and not be seen
to be seeing any
more than himsslf
a motionless seer
sovereign of gray
mirrored invisibly
in the seeing glass
of air Whatever I am
seeing is part of me
As you see me now my
vision is wrapped in
two green hypotheses
darkness blossoming
in two unseen eyes
which pretend to be
intent on a spot of bug
upon
the
rug
Who
can
see
how
eye
can
know
