Dog Diminished Hexaverse Poems

Enthusiasm
pandemonium

home from deployment;
soldier on furlough.

Swiftly bum-rushed

Guilt and love
Love squeals

Lonely
Happy
Relieved

Weekend days shining
Loud music pounding
Cards flying around
head pounding with noise
big dog runs around

when can I sleep?
Their shaking heads

Alarm clock blaring
I smell it from bed
Dog’s rear exploded
Got into the trash
Dang mutt needs diapers

Dog nailed the cat
Both need a bath
Can’t use the hose
Seven below

City nights, Star-less skies
Sprinkles wet, raindrop mist
brushes my arms, my face
tickling my toes with dew.
I hear the drops hit earth,
and, lo, I think of you.

I know that death comes
Getting closer now
Work unfinished now
Will I have time now
Accomplishments done

Clothes need folding
Dog needs his food
