Curiosity
The beginning of this poem is very unique. It starts out with the title, rather than the first sentence itself. But that is one of the few things i liked about the poem. I love poetry and deep meaningful thoughts, but i actually thought by the beginning of this poem, that it was going to be about cats! I am not the crazy cat lady, but it probably would have been more enjoyable for me to read about something simple for once. The poet used great metaphors, but since i had an image of what the poem was supposed to be; it kind of ruined what the poem was. I give the poet credit for using a create way of turning curiosity into a human problem rather than a cat problem since we are born into that believing. Over all though, i did not enjoy reading this poem. I honestly read it 5 times, and still cannot catch the meaning. Maybe it's the fact i put that wall up because it is'nt what i wanted it to be about.

Well, it's not about cats, silly! :) I think we do get a fixed idea sometimes and can't get past it. It really has nothing to do with cats, yes?
