You turned into a mouse-tit or a chickadee
A cat was out to get you with his giant paw,

when from the blue fell the tail-pin hawk to rescue his cousin
from that most predatory of four-footed species,
that stalking, hairy, gross-pawed house cat.

And one claw and one mottled wing
are the last thing chickadee or mouse-tit can see
in your day-dream.
