Sleek and smooth greyhound
A more refined pup we have never found
You are the one we look up to for sure
Your loveliness an example of brilliance so pure.’
You are an example that makes our species proud.
You do it subtly and serenely, not in any way loud.
Sleek and smooth greyhound, this is written for you.
You are my role model, so tried, treasured and true.

Woke up this morning
take awhile for
me to sleep last night
Sunshine in the morning
everythings gonna
be alright
read the letter
you left me
don't forget
to get the tuxedo
and your gown
taking off early before
evening
Me and my baby
ggoing out on the town
dancing
romancing
Cuddling up with
my Lady
We gonna Dance
the Night away
Dining on the
terrence
Groove the night away
"out in the World"
Me and my Lady
Kissing and stuff
Romancing my Baby
they sing ah song
one worth listening
I'm in the mood for
love
Smucking and Kissing
I'm in the mood for love
let's spend the night
together
I'm in the mood for love
it warm out
We love the weather
I'm in the mood for Love
with my sweet unobtainible thing
I'm in the mood for love
let's listen to them sing
Ah-ooh ah- ah.
like when they say
when they snap there fingers
and dance the night away
ooh-la: la-la, la-la
They want us to be
Kissing

I’m sure that what you seek
Is at some cloud-veiled peak
That could pick up more than a week
For a nearing by The Weak;
To be soon skinny that is sleek
And mentally thwarted – A freak
This proving by easily sounding Greek …
And-Gosh!-already, I picked out a beak
About to on it havoc wreak
Or leave an unseemly streak …
It is sure, a discouraging prophecy
But Wasted Effort is no legacy.

Short, sleek, chic and sweet
Swept me quick
Off my feet
Charmed me slowly beat by beat
What an odd rare pick!

Devotion Poem, Cat Steps
(Written for Jim Eslinger
Carefully I near him. He is curled up...sleek. Eyes
closed, perhaps not asleep. He sees. He will run.
He blends into hallway shadows. The light plays over
his outline. He steps within silence, outside hearing.
His devotion is fully committed to the circle he has
drawn around me: my lap his bed; my heart his
domain, entering whenever with assumption —
which I embrace as true. This dear cat, my leopard
when poised so....Aloof, yet overseeing everything,
including outside, where he travels by looking
through windowpanes. Too, I have caught how he
wears dreams of short escape, his eyes fix on spaces
of voids across the room. He pauses to listen
through doors. He sees around corners. When,
if ever he decides to go off for some while, I hope he
lets me follow. My sight stills on his glowing spots.

So Sleek Wearing Scarves
She seems sleek while wearing scarves,
And then herself to death often starves;
Learned as of late,
Would lose weight;
Uses knife and from her body fat carves.

Sleek Creek Beside Unique Peak
You should have seen the sleek creek,
That did run beside the unique peak,
You must hear them as they speak.

Sleek stream,
surge cascades
on heart of vale.

Steady and stealth are
NASA’s sleek steel ships,
their bright brazen tail lights
trail baby blue skies
as they climb cliffs of rugged cloud banks

Air blows right on me
From special little device
A unique sleek fan
A classical piece of work
With wind flowing onto me

He gawks long at his image in horror,
for there, clear in the unerring mirror,
he sees his limp, thinning and graying hair,
no longer that of a sleek debonair.
His careless, tousled look of long ago
that used to enthrall lovely women so
now only makes him look so tired, so old,
like one increasingly losing his hold.
He looks away shocked, hurt and disgusted,
just can't believe he's this spent, this wasted;
no longer the proud stallion thoroughbred
he thought he always was inside his head.
