Overlapping relations

Every relations are infinitely complex and unique, you don't need to tell that to pet owners - they know it (it's the rest who may be ignorant of that fact). But this poem adds much more to this axiom. Each relations may be an overlap of other relations we still carry in our hearts...like wet paint which hates to stay within the borders. One relation feeds from, and on the other....both as a trigger and as a source for new and strong excitement. Not unlike your previous works, the simple form is misleading as it reflects a complex emotional reality.

I have one suggestion for your consideration. In terms of the presentation of the "actors": the woman and the cat, and perhaps the memory of the past relations, perhaps giving them names or providing one or two physical details to allow the reader's imagination find a concrete anchor might have helped to further increase the overall impact of the poem.
