Warm
My lap
Come sit here
Let me stroke you
Let me run my fingers all over you
You nibble on my fingers while I do
Yes, you want more
I feel it
My dear
Cat
This is my response to the W3 prompt and to the JusJoJan prompt which is prompt.
This week’s prompt for W3 is to write a Double Tetractys — a 10-line poem with a fixed syllable pattern.
Theme: something spicy or a little naughty. Keep it suggestive rather than explicit. Let tension, humor, and implication do the work.
A Double Tetractys is made of two Tetractys poems joined together:
- The first five lines build up
- The next five lines mirror them in reverse
Syllable pattern (per line):
1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 10 / 10 / 4 / 3 / 2 / 1
Yes, I have a friend with a cat that can’t get enough of me. She sits beside me, on me, nibbling at me. It’s love.
Cute

Sally! This is too cute!
Sally — “You nibble on my fingers” made me smile; it feels so true to a cat’s affection. I love the soft turn to “My dear / Cat.”
