Vitus' Eye | final version

a cloth waved from the rooftop
a cat played with it non-stop
a dog licked cat's "mouse-tache"
misguiding cat for sure

you could hear a horse smile
you could see it run a mile
it ended with mental crash
and shout hard to endure

this was Vitus' dance
to understand this trance
was it prophetic dream
or just a humbug one?

Vitus is watching space
complains of chills to face
eyes open wide in gleam
afraid of sleep to stun
