Grrr

I heard the growl
in the middle of the night and assigned
it weight
It was only my stomach

I heard a purring as I tried
to stumble off to sleep
assigned it value
It was only my libido

I heard a clawing at the door
as I tried to roll over
assigned it fear and trepidation
It was only paranoia.
