Answer:
"Fog" is a short poem with six lines split into 2 stanzas. It is a free verse poem, having no regular rhyme scene.
The poem is an extended metaphor, the poet is seeing the fog as a cat that comes on tiny, silent feet, as cats do when they are stalking for example. Only a cat can move in such a way, almost imperceptibly, and in complete silence.
By keeping the lines of the poem short, the poet is controlling the pace, keeping it slow. As you read, you have to slow down because you're not too certain about the next word or line. This reflects the slow fog rolling in.
Imagery;
Fog meets cat; cat meets fog. Note the use of feet and not paws. The image is of thick white fog which slowly develops into a small feline, becomes life-like and is then gone. The fog is looking, as a cat looks, taking everything in.
I hope this helps!
