some people are cats
no matter how softly you call them
or what promise you hold out
they won't come.
heartbroken, you pretend not to care.
but then suddenly
you look down, and
they're spiraling your leg.
you enter a purr-induced amnesia.
it takes embarrassingly little love
to make you forgive a cat.

"no matter how softly you call them"
maybe that is the problem...
call them a little louder!
I've quoted this to three people so far. Well put, my friend.
and some are as honest as the day is long...
what a strange and wonderful surprise to read these posts and to hear these wonderful and strange songs being sung by a familiar voice.
you appear to be living life just as you must have always meant to. Congratulations!!! i will buy the records and when i play them for friends, i will have to say, this is john common, my first high school love. :)
