LITTLE CAT FEET

Why does fog come in on little cat feet? How is that a good image? I never got it.

I understood ee cummings better. My Sweet Etcetera, for instance. Or "Anyone lived in a pretty how town".

But back to the fog. I never liked it much. I guess I saw too many scary movies about bad guys lurking there under the street lights, surreal in their basking glow.

But I do like foghorns. (Even Foghorn Leghorn--now there's a cool rooster, I say, I say, there's a cool rooster.) And train horns. Why would people like to run with the bulls? I saw where a spectator was killed on Friday after the bull's horn pierced his neck.

I don't like air horns. But I liked the buzzers at the end of quarters. At Casey Junior High, they had the coolest old non-digital game clock whose hands moved like a regular wrist watch. Only when there was one minute to go, it would turn red. I liked that.

I liked Froggy on The Little Rascals and tried to imitate him. With little success. But it may have helped secure my alto spot in the grade school chorus.

From cat's feet to Froggy, I guess I've stream-of -conscioused enough. I should have given my reader(s) a one minute warning and typed in red, but I'm not that techy today.
