Landlocked in Fur

I was meditating with my cat the other day
and all of a sudden she shouted,
"What happened?"

I knew exactly what she meant, but encouraged
her to say more--- feeling that if she got it all out on the table
she would sleep better that night.

So I responded, "Tell me more, dear,"
and she soulfully meowed,

"Well I was mingled with the sky and now look---
I am landlocked in fur."

To this I said, "I know exactly what
you mean."

What to say about conversation
between mystics?

--- Tukaram (c. 1608-1649)

Friend Ellen dedicated this to Mithras, her cat who recently died. *sniff*
