"Like a Cat" by "Laura Cronk" read by Mischa Willett

from Poems for the People · host Poems for the People

I love this little love poem by Laura Cronk. It somehow serves as criticism of and appreciation for cats, as well as of the beloved, and of the differences between people generally. Who among us hasn't known figures like these?  I found it in the the Best American Poetry 2019 but you can seek out more of her work in her book Having Been an Accomplice (Persea Books) You can find out more about me and my books at www.mischawillett.com Thank you for listening, and if you come across poems that you like or have suggestions that I should feature on the show, feel free to drop me an email via the contact page on my website.
