Funny, as I first read through your poem, I paused at those lines "before time snaps back" and thought, "I love that." Then I see it's new. Great poem, Brian.
...in my Notebook, which winds up in newsfeed, which you might not care to hear. So, I post where you can pry...
Finally got the lid on that box
Nailed it shut?
It probably won't hold --
A temporary fix
Just felt like saying
It's closed...shut
Nope, I don't even have to look
I could peek in the morning
Making no plans to check on that cat.
Now closing my eyes
Rare occurrence but
I've done this before
A cage?
That is not my area of expertise.

Great poem, Brian.
