Creature of the Night
Creature of the Night
Life bleed
Life bleed
Oxygen into my soul
Street sign
Reads Everyone heed
Pay the toll
Right side of sadness
Left out in the rain
Life bleed
Brothers and sisters
One life
Concern for others
Missing the girl
You can tell by my shirt
It could be night forever
I may never miss the day
Night traveled down this lonely highway
My brain aches again
Killer cats electric

GOTCHA!
Tingly skies full of surprise oh how I love when with surmise,
the little rascal aims his dart as if it were, poetic art!
What a surprise, with little doe eyes,
the puffy little critter did steal my heart.
With fluffy white and orange fur, he started to purr,
and there went what's left of my heart.
With love that

Whiskers On Kittens
Precious kittens move my heart -
I’ve known this since small.
Whether still or in crazed dart,
they enthrall my all.
Silk furs, whiskers, purrs -
all make resistance depart
while cat love occurs.

Whiskers on Kittens
My cat has lots of whiskers,
whiskers on her face,
and above her bright green eyes,
appearing like lace.
And some in her ears,
whiskers on whiskers, whiskers
like tiny white spears !

Wren goes in cat door in garage
cat flap in garage is frequented by a wren
as if she owns the place, she hops right in
this is day two, that I have seen this sight.
If a cat is inside there, she is not so bright.

Dog Chases Tail
He whirred around for quite some time
hounding his stubby runt tail
copious spittle, a flying trail
coating the walls with sticky slime;
before stopping, panting a spell
then restarting counterclockwise
as if it would less tantalize;
the tail continued to rebel.
The cat looked on in feline scorn
I, in turn, observed both dog and cat,
who was having fun; me, the cat,
or

Smitten by Kitten Disinterest
never loved cat ways
their tail-flicking arrogance
their unasked-for gaze
my family longed for one —
I yielded, keeping distance
stray kitten arrived
they all fawned gushed over it
but the cat chose me
the least interested one
who shooed and shoved it away
smitten by kitten
my heart disinterested
lurched to beat retreat
we're inseparable now
the kitten has claimed my lap

Feed Me
Frantic meows and urgent leading
show me the way to the food container
"Meow, meow, meow" translates as
"Feed me, feed me, NOW!"
So, I do and give him a few head rubs
as he devours the food and begs for more

The Hospital Cat
The surgeon
had successfully removed his libido
and fed it to the hospital cat.
Corridors became whispering tubes
for I.V. drip pushing wanderers,
their pale bottoms peering out
like beluga whales through the cracks
of gaping gowns.
He dreamed often,
the drugs swiped his mind,
he was a screen, that with flickering ease
erased and replaced his life
with crazily narrated electric poetry,
a hypersonic buzz
that pretzelled his

To My Recollection
Cat was very nice to mice:
If asked for cheese, replied,
how big a slice?~ My honor to
please! --
Was also fond of backyard
birds: Wonderful! Marvelous!~
his admiring words.
Now dog, was a bit more ornery...
he barked a lot, even at the laundry --
protector of all, in that way true~
a tinted greyhound, who answered to
Blue --
