The Kittens in the Photograph
Inspired by a picture
Look at the kittens in the photograph
They are whiter than snow
How cute and cuddly they are!
They look so sad and scared
Perhaps they miss their mom
Both kittens are wearing pink bows
They have dainty whiskers,
Soft, fluffy bodies, long, furry tails,
And tiny paws with sharp claws
Their eyes have black pupils and grey irises
They gleam brightly in the dark!
The scene has a black background
Both kittens are standing side by side
The camera flashes a bright light
Meow, meow, meow,...

One Cool Cat
Since you found me astray
Like a lost kitten
Every day
I've been awestricken
I can not say
That I'm not smitten
And your heart may
Have me frostbitten
But you have placed
On these paws mittens
You are my brace
When I start slipping
In your embrace
I am uplifted
There's no escape
From your claws gripping
You give warmth when I shiver
Nourishment when I wither
Beckon me to come hither
And I beg not to differ
When I'm qualming and...
Like a lost kitten

When I start slipping

There's no escape

You give warmth when I shiver
Nourishment when I wither
Beckon me to come hither

Aoife
radiant beauty
Aoife
feral kitty
Aoife
softly sleeping
Aoife
hissing, scratching
Aoife
patiently waiting
Aoife
picked by me
Aoife
tamed and happy
Aoife
keep on growing
Aoife
my one and only

Mocking Machli's Bicker
porous pasts pumped
peered pulpy pump
bounty blitzkrieg bursts
leering lanky lurch
lusty lips lobbed
cremating callous cost
masticated memories moaned
trading taunted tone
salient liquid sown
eerie ocean etched
kaleidoscopic churn's cleft
tuning torpedo's trend
haughty horizon hankers
mocking Machli's bicker.
'20:05:02:18:23
Note: Of an oozing ocean and a taunted tiger.

Eulogy for a Pet
We named her Belladonna and
she died a grand old eighteen years.
A catlike silhouetted tear
revealing twilight’s firmament,
her shifting shades of brown were fair
and nightly all at once, a tapestry
too rich to earn her status as the runt.
Her older sister Smokey died
when Bella was still shy of ten,
and life without her grey sibling
unscrewed her mind, already loose, somewhat.
I like to think we kept her barely sane.
she died a grand old eighteen years.
A catlike silhouetted tear
revealing twilight’s firmament,
her shifting shades of brown were fair
and nightly all at once, a tapestry
too rich to earn her status as the runt.

when Bella was still shy of ten,
and life without her grey sibling
unscrewed her mind, already loose, somewhat.
I like to think we kept her barely sane.

Tough little geezer.
I had a cat, a tough little geezer
found him on a dump, inside an old freezer,
he was cold and hungry and as wet as a puddle
and the least I could do was give him a cuddle.
I stretched in to save him from harm
and the little bugger, he bit my arm!
I knew he was frightened
so I forgave him this sin,
but then his claws sank into my skin.
I called him a name
which he couldn't keep
as his claws sank, ever deep,
and hissing and spitting, he stood his ground
so I had to concede, this very first round.
I closed the lid on the old...

Impasse
I sit in my room,
The lamp on my nightstand glows,
My father snores downstairs,
Like a metronome,
If metronomes snored.
Outside, the streetlights cast their sodium haze
Onto the branches,
And there’s probably a party going on,
Down the street.
Not really a party, just some teens
Getting up to no good,
Making a lot of noise,
In their backyard.
I hear the angered meowl and scrowl,
Of one of the many neighborhood cats,
And the cheerful shouts from the youngsters,
Probably poking at it and giving the poor cat...

And the cheerful shouts from the youngsters,
Probably poking at it and giving the poor cat...

The Cat in Spring
that old cat,
her daily gifts --
when spring is born
her interest shifts
from sitting
on an old man's lap,
the window sill
and day long naps
to roaming fields
around the house
and stalking
bird
and hare
and mouse
she lays their bodies
at my step
tattered,
bloody,
broken,
ripped
and who would think
that one so sweet
who purrs and nuzzles
at my feet
could be the brunt
of nature's wrath
and become a vicious
psychopath ...

Little Wounds
When I found out a step relative of mine, used to cut herself,
I tried one time to cut myself,
To see what it was like,
I hated it, it hurt, I gave it a strong dislike,
I lied and said the bandaid on the side of my hand was a cat scratch (I get those all the time).
But this time,
I just reached for the pocket knife like I've done it a million times,
I've never been one to cut, not the many times
My heart has hurt, so I have no idea why I rushed to it,
And I just did it.
I never thought I would get here,
Not even near.
My first real...

Why Won't You Listen?!
Mom, it's not all about you,
I know you're not careless with your children or fur babies but you
Need to realise that Whiskers is getting rambunctious,
He is playing, and causing trouble, and this fear is not fictitious,
Switching who sits in the rocking chair will not save his tail
If he is behind you when you are playing a card game and don't see his tail.
Just get a dining room chair,
This isn't fair.
Stop screaming at me to shut up and let it go,
I will let go
When safety is not on the line,
I can't believe your ego is more...
I know you're not careless with your children or fur babies but you

Stop screaming at me to shut up and let it go,
I will let go
When safety is not on the line,
I can't believe your ego is more...

animal swag
a contrapuntal poem
the cat would on my doormat stay
behold the dog – he barks
to meow the quiet hours away
and in his eyes are sparks
her furry purr a ball of tease
enticing him to wag
by which she seeks my heart to please
the way most canines brag
a bowl of milk will pacify
a bone is his reward
the feline whims that classify
for keeping robust guard
this puff of fleeting innocence
he’s my sincerest friend
that fills my life with eloquence
until the journey’s end.

Something is Fishy and It Ain't Me
I put tuna in a cat carrier
to help this old cat
get to the vet
now she reeks
and everyone is
looking at me.
Seriously it's the fuckin cat!!
