A former star
who graced that smaller screen in days gone by,
I recognized him,
his ginger pelt and tiger stripes
announcing his arrival.
Retired now,
he still commands attention with aristocratic voice,
a voice that holds a note of condescension,
or of boredom.
No more 9 Lives for him,
our little tiger.
His palate has a worldly bent today.
Shall it be French? Or Thai? Perhaps Chinese -
but then, with that aristocratic voice,
he casts his vote for sushi.
O Tempura! O Morris!
