.
I went downstairs in a bungalow
I went upstairs in a flat
I went outside my prison
I trod upon a cat.
.
The cat climbed up a tree
The tree grew tall from roots
The roots thrust in the earth
The earth gave up its ghosts.
.
The ghosts were spooking me
The roots had bound the earth
The tree had pierced the sky
Where was the cat?
.
It never came back.
