On one side of the glass is a small lizard.

On one side of the glass is a calico cat.

The lizard scampers across the surface,

A paw traces its every move.

then, all is still.

The Lizard is no longer running.

The cat’s paw lies, as if frozen, on the window pane.

Did the small reptile stop the chase because he knew she could not catch him?

or was he in freeze, believing himself safe because he was not moving?
