It's encouraging that your notes seemed to echo my doubts. Guess I'm on the right track. I hadn't even considered that "My everpresent companion" should relate to both loneliness and what I am comparing it to. Posting an edit with your notes in mind.
Regarding your form comment, I've been reading a lot of Kim Addonizio, and much of her writing seems to ride the line of prose broken by lines, stanzas, and punctuation. I have found it very inspiring.
Hadn't even thought of the rest of the poem being on top of the cats! I mean...ahem...I definitely considered that. I'm glad you picked up on it.
