CATHIE'S CLAIM
This is Cathie's claim:
I love you.
How can words define
Boundaries?
She staked me out. Marked
Carefully
Her territory.
Surrendered
I, but not without
A struggle.
I set aflame and
Cast adrift
Her sailing vessels,
Marooned her
On my continent
Forcing her
To explore my world
And conquer me.
I lost the battle,
Won the war.
She can make her claim--
I love you.
