Housecat

I am a housecat now
Reduced from a lioness to this quieter,
Softer
Altogether weaker specimen
Propped on cushions I sit by the window
Staring out at the world through
Hooded eyes
Veiling my anguish behind a façade of contentment
Pretending I don’t...

Survived Only Never Came Home the Same

Ribbons of confetti are streaming
out of the surviving building's with people hanging from them

And everyone to be seen in this

Small-Minded People

Just how small can small-minded be?
Small-minded is that thing you see
That walks with small steps constantly
But goes nowhere you want to be.

Small are their own small-minded thoughts
That resonate from nil to naught
And traverse in small-minded...

Serena

Serena, when she’s sleeping, is the sleepiest cat in the world.

She likes her basket in the sun,
and a nice warm bed when day is done.
She stretches first and turns around
and only then she settles down.

As a blooming princess, I incur both acclaim and glory.

Shaking shyly under a whimsical sky in dull tree stumps, 
Soft melting snow vacuums up...

I'll hold this place for her loving faintly-
fragile, and tepid outer layer veils so thinly
a gorgeous core shining bright and quietly
  Her eyes say more

Beeattitude

The Borg have nothing on the bees;
they act as a collective mind.
Instead of dominating worlds,
They leave a better place behind.

A bee’s life, rather short and hard
unless it happens you’re the Queen.
Twenty-five hundred eggs a day

Why can’t he get away from that mirror? Miss Piggy wondered.

PRIMP and PREEN



Passersby’s halt, they fear to walk by, to fall to this feline
in her prime. No moggie is she who’s primped and preened
in contemplation she flaunts her flair. Motionless as art, her
body’s dreadful covered...

The Thistle's Lament

Those condescending Royals in their pristine
garden, primp and preen among the other flowers.  
Their porcelain pale skin so fragile; they make

The Woman In the Mirror

Who is that woman
That follows me around
She mimics everything I do
But she doesn't make a sound
She looks somewhat like me
 More mature I must confess
Although her hair is grayer
She copies the way I dress!

Spring

Another spring is almost upon us
