Luca
So kind and attentive
My bearer of light
Reading my mood
Providing unconditional love
Happily greeting guests
Acting like a human
In fact, my beautiful orange tabby cat
Glad that you found me
And for all of the years we spent together
Now that you have passed
I still feel your warm light shine upon me
You will be in my memory forever
My sweet fur baby

you are
you were
you will be
you will
fill my need
the sexuality
of poetry
the true kiss
of inspiration's lips
not of
the body
but of the flesh
the air you breathe
you breathe into me
with my perspiration
in anticipation
orgasmic words
perhaps abstract
and absurd
towards
total
disbelief
that concrete
shoes should sway
me
disway me
weigh me down
so in the end
tell the boatman
to ease me in
it seems Styx
and stone will
take my bones
as i swim
with the fishes
perhaps i might
bump
into the
lost and found
of
the body

Form: I do not know?
He's a loyal friend,
Faithful 'til the end.
He listens with patience
To my lively cadence.
By the wag of his tail,
I know joy shall prevail.
My loving, adoring pet,
My greatest of friendships yet.
There's nothing so fine
As this dog of mine.
A gift from above,
He gives of his love.
He's devoted and true,
He asks very little too.
He never complains,
Unless he's in pain.
He's a comic at times
And I laugh 'til I cry.
He is ready to play
Anytime, night or day.
I throw him his toy
And he jumps for joy.
Then seems to say, "Let's go,
Give it another throw."
He's a sly little fox,
Houdini out the box.
I've yet to learn his tricks,
For he's crafty and quick.
But he always comes home,
From wherever he's roamed.
So I say a prayer and Hallelujah,
He's safely home, my beautiful Luca.
