...She throws herself at the feet
of the unimpressed—
rolling, rubbing and yowling,
an opera of yearning
for the neutered elite.

They blink, stretch, then saunter off
for another nap
on the sun...

Premium MemberMy dog's as smart as a geek and other doggy poems

...My dog's as smart as a geek.
He can bark in English, Arabic, and Greek.
He’s expert in canine mathematics,
can discuss dog-fight aerodynamics,
and is fluent in bow-wow doublespeak.

...the dog’s dreaded cone is off
I am keeping a close eye out
Attempting to keep him from licking his wounds.

of course neither is a carnival

...Of all fond thoughts held deep within the heart			
Like strings lightly strummed fly with agile wings			
Take flight yet never from my mind depart				
Soar as wandering clouds where angels sing			...

In the delicious womb of all beginnings 
we learnt to giggle electrons
to bear all things 
without nusturtiums, pink lilies or doughnuts 
warm gurglings of God’s dream...

Poem By My Son Trystan

...No more

Mothballs and cedar assault my nose

The dust mites and stale air dry my throat

A wardrobe that is just that

 

The lion roars no more

Neutered and robbed of his fire

In Another Life

...I’d be a cat, born to a mother already a spoiled house cat.
I would also be the one orange one in the litter,

Black Mass Wedding

Premium MemberBlinded By Their Right

...Blind ... can be seen to find,
        a mysterious fog ahead,
     restrained by fury without wind,
Hot air born to burst,
        about a front and behind.

    Yet we don't see.

  'Cos I swear there are bosses with a secret device

Premium MemberKerfuffle

...The kerfuffle began
when the K&K's concocted
a plan to be special
beyond breakfast.
To be silent, written,
but never heard
was simply absurd.

...Three boyfriends have I, whom I could marry

  Sleeps all day, and mopes nights...
