Tom-Cat

by Don Marquis

The Tom-Cat is a collection of poems by Don Marquis that explore the thoughts and feelings of a philosophical cat named Archy. Archy, who communicates through a typewriter, offers witty and insightful observations on the human condition, love, life, death, and the absurdities of society. The poems are often humorous and thought-provoking, and they offer a unique perspective on the world from the point of view of a creature who is both observant and detached.
