A Cat's Dream of Flying

Am I sleeping? Am I flying? I don't know!

I bought a postcard with a Flying Cat! his eyes closed, his fluffy paws, only partly visible, spread wide. After a closer look, I realised someone had turned the postcard upside down. The cat was in fact sleeping.

But then - who knows?...

(I would like to show you the photo but I'm not sure if it's legal - catright and copyright! So I'm leaving the picture of a Flying Cat to your imagination...)


Am I sleeping?
Am I flying?
That's no easy guess.
Little difference, I'm not lying,
I don't know myself.

If I'm flying, I'll fall on four
paws, even asleep.
If I'm sleeping, I can still soar
till the alarm beeps.

Then I'll squeeze my eyes shut, keeping
myself in the air.
Am I flying?
Am I sleeping?
I don't think I care.
