Dumb little cat
swallows her world whole
devouring life faster
than her body can absorb.
                Again tonight,
it's chewed her back.
This is what happens.
This is what happens
when your hunger
exceeds your strength
when, hell bent, you must
have love and fear and beauty
all at once.
But she is mine
and so her appetite
will not be taught.

    Heather Lee Rogers

    I write and perform poetry.  I have been published on many websites and print publications at various times throughout my life. I live in NYC where I also create as an actor. Acting projects make me forget that I'm a poet for long stretches of time.  But I mean to work on that here: I'll be posting old poems, new poems, and everything in between. Thanks for visiting.  Enjoy!
