The cats will be on the spaceships watching the facehuggers and chest bursters with the same eyes..

I couldn't stop reading this and before I knew it, it was over and I had gone on quite the journey. The mystique within the narrative also had me wanting more but not in frustration but in a 'I need to see where this is going and how this finishes' sort of way. I'm someone who has had cats his whole life and still the ending was quite the punch for me.

Thanks so much for the comment, I'm glad you appreciated the poem.

I love cats too. That cat in particular belongs to one of the neighbours of the arrestee, he was just hanging out. The affairs of mortal men troubled him not, I guess!
