not quite in focus

to set the angel in among the cats
does not deliver us from what we lack
instead it opens us to more attack

we don't expect to see the clawing rats
come in and tear down what is on the rack
to set the angel in among the cats

those lying safely on the warming mats
know not what has been let out of the sack
only that we have taught our kids the knack
to set the angel in among the cats
