My cat Freya and I were looking out at the night sky
And wondering where we might get some milk so late.
Seeing no possible solution, I somehow hurled myself
Into the starry depths of space, and, stopping long enough
To have a quick belt with Orion and to pet the Dog Star,
I grabbed the Big Dipper and rode the Horsehead Nebula
Down to the Milky Way where I filled it to the top.
Then I slid down a moonbeam to my kitchen table.
“And you thought I was crazy,” I said as I poured
The luminous liquid into her empty bowl.
“Maybe a little,” she replied.
