Black Cat and Blood

By Shirley Siaton

Thank you.

For the constancy. The mundane.

This strange little taste that leaves

a parched throat half-open.

In expectation.

A collection of free verses written over the years in various stages of a young woman's life, Black Cat and Blood 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.
