Dances with Alice
10:30 p.m. Alice-the-cat gets a good cuddle. Hand-over-hand, running through her thick coat. Feeling the rumbling of her purring. We walk up the stairs together. Pausing at moments for more. Swift leap. Then she’s on the bed. Hands run through fur. Deep body rumbles. Then in a moment teeth bare and bite. The dance is done. It was a sunny cold day. Big winds rush down Bloor. Hats nearly blown off heads.
