curiosity!

my gosh this poem was amazing!!! i loved this poem so much! i read this poem and immediately saw the correlation between the dogs and the cats. the writing was brilliant.

Alastair Reid writes about cats and these cats are people, but these people are the kinds of people that are worry free, they are carefree, and they hold little to no responsibility for anything. he states that the cats love too much theyre irresponsible are changeable and unloyal unlike a dog who is tame and loyal. the author then goes on to say that cats are doing whats right, to be curious and untame is worth the pain and the "hell" that they come back from, because these cats then have stories worth telling.

my favorite part of the poem is when he states that cats are willing to pay the price of dying and dying again so that they can live full and curious lives. Chilling.
