Paraphrase
Macavity the Mystery Cat is the first and last poem composed
by T.S. Eliot for youngsters . Perhaps, the poet is comparing cat with all the
criminals that commit the crime and get elope.
Unlike Eliot’s other poems, this is very easy to understand. It has no complexities and farfetched references. Abstractly, Cat represents the notoriety, notoriety of a
typical criminal, whom we encounter at every nook and corner of the public
places. In the poem, a brief description about the mystery cat is given. The mystery
cat has mastery to move around without leaving its single footprint. He
has entitled as ‘Mystery’ due to its notoriety for braking the laws. For Scotland
Squad, to catch him easily is not possible, every efforts to catch red handed results in despair or empty hand. It is common for the police squad, after
reaching on the spot of crime and criminal is not there. The mystery cat
possesses all the skills or tricks that a typical or master criminal use to
have; he is a unique in all. The mystery Cat is capable to do unnatural acts;
he breaks the laws made for human by human as well as the laws made by nature. He
can be spotted in very bizarre places, the places about which we do not think generally.
He is different from the terrestrial creature; perhaps, he uses to be some time
in the basement or you may need to look up in the air.
Now, the poet
is pointing out or giving the clues about the appearance of the Mystery Cat:
how it looks, how one can get it identify. The Macavity, a very tall and thin
cat like ginger, one can recognise it very easily if he knows the shape of cat.
His eyes are very deep and so brows lined deeply, head is erected or dome like.
His coat is very dusty and so uncombed beard. The mystery cat is very quick,
quick like a squirrel and turns the head around so that he could look all the
sides. It is common for him, if we think he is asleep but he is wide-awake. The
mystery cat has all the faculties and techniques that make him incomparable.
The poet
wants to reveal that cat has hidden identity but we are still leaving him to
accuse. The poet’s point of view the cat is not cat: a monster, a sinner of
uncountable sins and master of devils in the form of a cat. The devil cat
multiplies itself; he can be seen at multiple places, the places like Public
Square, by street and at other public domains. However, the most the matter of
despair is that it does not come in the reach of our police officers.
