The noise makers tell me it’s time
The black water machine tells me it’s time
Why aren’t they moving?
They grunt and grumble at my inquiries
They send explicit words at me
Why are they angry with me?
The one with face fur is first
He stumbles like he’s drunk
Why can’t he talk right?
“What’s your malfunction?”
He grunts as he sways toward the kitchen
Why can’t he walk straight?
The alpha is next as she belts to him
“Don’t yell at him, he loves you most!”
Why is she covered with bed fur still?
Face fur man gets the black water for them
Alpha woman goes to the litter box room
Why do I have to do this everyday?
They fix the big soft rectangle and lay my bed fur down
I jump to it, they sit down and drink their black water
Why can’t they see I love them?
They pet me and complain about it
They won’t let me drink the black water
Why aren’t we equals?
I am happy though
My throat tells them so
I do love them - they are my peoples
I am their Ninja Shit Kitty
Whatever that means
