Kublai
he chews my rugs
he chews my shoes
he chews my patience
through and through
he chews my chairs
he chews my couch
he chews my sleep
by barking so loud
he chews my hat
he chews my books
he chews everything
except his untouched toys
like a kid at Christmas playing with the box
he chews and chews and chews
and chews right into my heart
with those big sad eyes
short wiggly tail
Kublai sits in my lap
he licks my face
and as i pet him on the head
he chews my hand
playful to the end
