donkeys do not do flash
when a donkey dies, does its’ life pass before its eyes or do its’ eyes die at the same time as the donkey, I admit, looks surprised ..

Blame the prey
You can tell the sheep
to look less delicious,
but that won't prevent the wolves
from getting hungry.

TIGGA
You are that’s extra twinkly star that pops out as darkness folds us in for the night but you still remain you always stayed up way to late . You are the warmth in the extra lining of my parka coat . You are muddy paws and wet nose kisses on my head and the unexpected gifts of a dead mouse by my bed .
You are still my comfort blanket but just from afar .
I will never stop looking for rainbows that end with
dreamy treats . Tigga quite simply in a world
that’s filled with so much war and struggle
and pain . One look at you and I knew it was
high five paws all...

Petting a Dog
You join me on the couch
Curled up in your favourite spot
With one of your people
Petting you is supposed to be relaxing
Often I can’t find the relaxation
Petting you consciously
Like a task to be completed
Tonight is different
Finding the relaxation in the texture of fir
Softness of your ears
Absentmindedly petting your head
Playing with your floppy ears
Finally finding elusive relaxation
For both of us
Curled up in your favourite spot
With one of your people
Petting you is supposed to be relaxing
Often I can’t find the relaxation
Petting you consciously
Like a task to be completed
Tonight is different
Finding the relaxation in the texture of fir
Softness of your ears
Absentmindedly petting your head
Playing with your floppy ears
Finally finding elusive relaxation
For both of us

It's All Dung
A gentle touch from above
a little squeeze from within
a warm feeling begins
filling you up inside
BULL !
you swing your shit
try to make it real
trotting around with your smile
telling everyone, " How much I care "
Hadehaha, and Yippe-Ki-Yay...
monkey see-monkey do...
maybe you better change your underwear.

The Adventures of Hoppity Hop (The Final Adventure)
3:00 am I wake to you passed out
in the corner where you slept
changing your food and water
I noticed there was no movement
your chest wasn’t moving
some see their animals as pets
to me you were my son
can’t have kids of my own
so when I held you for the first time
it made me smile
and everyday after
I was always happy to see you
you were hopping with joy
waiting for me to pet you
no one else could hold you
you never gave me any trouble
I feel bad, I could of done more

Everything I know about love
my cat is an asshole
most mornings
he wails a death wish
in my sleeping ear
is possessed by Shakespeare
as he rolls onto his back
feet in the air
as if life is an absolute tragedy
makes me carry him
upstairs every night
abandoning me at the top step
then wails that I dare let him go
my cat is an asshole
sits on the edge of the bath
falls in where fur finds bubbles
in fury and chaos
& I towel him down as...
