I saw him through the window,
through the rippling circle my own
hot breath had melted
in the spiky flowers of the frost…—Liz Lochhead, “2. What the Creature Said”, from DREAMING FRANKENSTEIN & Collected Poems 1967–1984 (Birlinn, 2011)

There once was a Cat named Stitches,
With fur patched in odd little niches.
He’d spark in the night,
Make doggies take flight,
And nap on his bed full of switches!
