Wayne Matthews –  Opening the Mouth

About the work:

 Opening the Mouth…

For over nine millennia the cat we call the domestic cat has, genetically speaking, gone virtually unchanged. If you ever wonder, as I do, how that first contact between human and cat was made you need look no further than the present. Both cat and human choosing to cross that threshold, a tacit agreement made; your company for mine.

 

There once was a cat called Mau,

It was sacred but no holy cow.

Now, she’s been living ‘right here’,

For more than two years.

I call her Andromeda and bow.
