Trying to Be the Knight of Faith

To believe
six impossible things
before breakfast.
Something can’t really
be true unless
it’s impossible, right?
I believed I would
come home to a fabulous dinner—
I wasn’t disappointed.
I had to leave my cat
in my house when they took me away—
will he be OK?
The end has come.
I’m dying in prison and my cat isn’t with me—
big white paws, 
wheezy purr.
