Hoops and Handles

Gold loop earrings came to represent my public persona years ago. This was not intentional but a result of limited time, budget, and imagination.

One may think loops are loops. Lose one, save the single to use again when one is lost from the replacement pair. Wrong. No 3 or 4 loops are the same.

Loops do sometimes serve the purpose of better health for puppies because of their resemblance to Ascaris. Tip: Loops do not normally wiggle.

Loops can't be disabled. They last forever. Wrong. That is because loops are sometimes puppy breakfast and always good handles.

Loops are handles. Alpha Cat in charge of scheduling need only catch a loop with claw and give a quick yank to start the day.

Flinging loop into a dark corner, perhaps a shoe or bookcase, Alpha Cat may then proceed to morning nap untroubled by worries the house will lie quiet beyond first light.

Thus it shall always be that matched gold loop earrings, my trademark in public, and the singles in chains and mounds shall ever bedeck my dresser.
