Black Cat

By Shirley Siaton

Thank you.

For the pain, through which

I grope my way in dazed wakefulness.

The void, where my tongue-tips

catch the essence of a hungering moon.

A compilation of free verses written over the years in various stages of a young woman's life, 'Black Cat' is a journey of self-discovery, awareness and growth.

Each poem is a story culled from an existence well savored, much like a cat's fabled nine lives. There are tales of lust, loss, melancholy, decay and awakening.

Author Shirley Siaton gives her heart, body and soul to the reader bare-bones, with no inhibitions or pretensions.
