It rained that day, gray frayed and green

While Cat slept on a cushioned chair

Wind drove against the window screen

I walked the beach, wet face & hair

While Cat slept on a cushioned chair

The rain drummed dark against the roof

I walked the beach wet face & hair

Cat looked at me all bland aloof

Rain drummed dark against the roof

Drowning sound of shouting gulls

Cat looked at me all bland aloof

Cat and me, rejects and culls.

Drowning sound of shouting gull

Wind drove against the window screen

Cat and me reject and cull

It rained that day gray frayed and green
