Burning the cat.A poem by W.S. Merwin.

Here is another poem from my favourite poet, WS Merwin.
It is a confronting story about a man trying to burn his dead cat.
And in the ending, it is about so much more.

Now, despite a good poke around, I cannot find this poem anywhere else on the internet.
So I had to type it out myself (ughrrh).
I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Subscribe to continue readingSubscribe to get access to the rest of this post and other subscriber-only content.Type your email…SubscribeAlready a subscriber?
