Alley

I was sitting alone in the dark alley while a cat whispered in my ears. What are you doing in the dark, asked the cat? It is my alley, I replied. I am the alley man…ailman…allman. There’s no place for a alley cat here. Are you an alley cat? Or just a cat wondering in the depths of the mind? Cat replied no, I am not an alley cat, just an ordinary cat. So scoot, go away, I shouted. Left…Alone. It was still dark then, but now I was alone again. No cat. Just me in the alley.
