Would it matter what day?
You were born.
It is a new year's in Asia.
As the story goes
The rat tricked the cat.
Into not showing up
For the banquet
And he did not get.
To celebrate in the party
There for they claim
No sign of the cat
But in Viet nam
Instead of a hare
There is a cat!
Why do you believe?
This might be so.
Two different stories
Two different animals
Assigned for the new year's festival?
It is our story.
Is it not.
Born to the same woman.
But given different upbringings.
She chose to nurture you.
While she let nature take care of me.
It is not. meant to be literal.
But there it is.
We had a mama.
Whose mind was already gone.
Instead of a sweet homecoming
One of us always got punished
My father was confused.
As to what was going on.
And her family she lied.
Successfully her whole life
They ended up dying.
Without her caring for them
Old Aunt Ella
Ended her days in a nursing home
After all the places she went in her life
Taking us with her when she could
I am afraid. little one
That mama has left you nothing at all.
Not even me,
She is hoping I will die.
Before we see each other again.
However, I am still here.
Hoping to find a way.
Around her plans
Suspicious be suspicious.
Of any other who comes
Do not trust anyone.
It will be who finds you.
In the end.
I am afraid she has gone.
And done what her grandparents.
Forbade and given their homestead.
Away, the only place we knew.
As home.
So far away from the rest
Of the world
A sanctuary to most
Who came by it with an invitation?
It was the others.
Who sought ways of stealing?
That made it known.
She was not going to win.
Against them.
Jimmy who is not ours
Arrived via these other ladies.
Of no good intentions
It is for God that they
Want all the worldy possessions
Hum bug
Greedy little bitches.
Jimmy has taken all of our
Toys, books, and dresses
Given them away
To others while we
Were gone.
No wonder it took us so long.
To get home sometimes
He has raided every closest.
Taking out the fur coats
And silk dresses
As well as the fine China
Just tossed it away.
As if it was garbage.
He cares not what happens.
To the things that are not for him
But tearing down one hundred-year-old houses
For no reason at all
He says he is building those glass.
Towers with no escape in case
Of emergency
He is just being mean.
He does not even like them
He just wants to destroy.
He has gone to every person.
Giving them his sob story
He even has them pay him money.
In order to keep them from guessing
That he will take their houses as well
If he can, he will have it all.
Just to destroy
Each and every memory
As if we had not existed.
That is what he really wants.
World domination
Through erasing those who mattered
He had rich parents
Who provided for him.
Spoiled him and gave in to him.
But he just wantad that little girl
Standing or sitting
There by the wayside
Waiting for her mama
To decide if it was time
To stop being punished
For being born.
Where will it end?
I don't know dear.
He has raided the vaults.
Of the banks
And the safes of the houses
Musuems have not been safe to him.
In the past, nor have public buildings.
Gone unentered.
He might even burn down.
The White House
Before he is done.
He certainly has caused enough trouble.
Yet no one seems to know how to stop him.
She knew his mind and allowed it.
To be thought he was her son.
Instead of prospect of son in law.
I know you did not agree
To marry him nor will I.
He has no way of understanding
With his parents what reality
But be careful
Where ever you are.
She might lead you to believe
You are not what you are...
Do not follow the Rabbit.
Nor allow yourself.
To be used as a horse
You are a proud innocent.
Princess with no fussing
Be kind when I arrive.
As I have gone ahead of you
Growing with the world
Cats are our ways.
Careful and cautious
Do not given in to Candace!
Nor get caught by Jimmy.
Nothing at all.
He has taken. everything.
Not even a husband
Has he spared.
We will be one again and soon.
Remember the cat.
Did make it to the banquet.
In the end, I will be there as well for you.
