Poetry month -- Day 30 -- sort of

For poem #30, I wrote a Tanka, although not necessarily a true Tanka. A true Tanka would be about nature/seasons and would convey a strong emotion. Mine is a about a cat's nature and only conveys annoyance. :)
The syllable count is: 5, 7, 5, 7, 7, for 31 syllables.

30 – Tanka

Is it possible
That one skinny, scrawny cat
Can spread herself out
Over an entire bed?
Such an act defies logic.
