A cat perched on the Railing –
To enamor my every moment –
Was all it took – to make my way –
Out of Jumping’s ‘jailing.’
A distant singer on the stage –
To swoon me immortally –
Was all it took – to make my day –
And end my enemy – Rage.
Rage – in his grave –
Lets Jumping flee – and go sailing.
This departure I owe – to the singer – so brave –
And my cat perched on the Railing.
