The Phantom Villian And A Queen With A Cat In Her Hat
It was the strangest thing I'd ever seen
The dead cat in her hat
Lying next to the queen
A lantern was lit
That exposed where her brain had exploded
And left her twisted body quite eroded
It's so hard to be sure
What actually happened that night
To make the queen and her cat
Be brutally bludgeoned like that
For the kitty's eyes were missing
And it's tongue had turned black
Was it the queen or her cat
That first met their demise
No one could tell from the Queen's half opened eyes
Which one was the intended...
The dead cat in her hat
Lying next to the queen
A lantern was lit
That exposed where her brain had exploded
And left her twisted body quite eroded
It's so hard to be sure
What actually happened that night
To make the queen and her cat
Be brutally bludgeoned like that
For the kitty's eyes were missing
And it's tongue had turned black
Was it the queen or her cat
That first met their demise
No one could tell from the Queen's half opened eyes
Which one was the intended...

cat people tend to be the butt of jokes
you know the old saying...
...crazy cat lady...guilty as charged
let me tell you something though
these ladies saved me
when we entered isolation status
they were my only companions
my motivation to keep moving
Bella is the eldest...rolling into her 16th year
just starting to show signs of dementia
leaving the room & crying...as if to say
I can't remember where I left ya
she always calms when I call out
you'd never know it now...
but in her youth...

animal heaven
i had
heard that
all dogs
go to
heaven,
i even
watched
the animated
movie,
wouldn't it
seem fair
to know
that heaven
would show
the same
consideration
and privileges
towards cats
as well?

Invasion
understanding lighted up my mind
warmth suffused my heart
the day I touched you
across the desk
the special way you looked at me
the way you gently touched my face
the way you brushed my lips
with your face
understanding that you want to be loved
knowing you will be with me
through my laughter and tears
never judging me in my weaknesses
you are special, little cat.

A Father he is
to many strays meandering
within survival's shallow breath
A limited resource
snagging the dying kitten
from the mire of grave
Graciously spending his last penny
on antibiotics for congestion
food easing distended bellies
Shelter from the elements
rubber totes and blankets
fresh water for the weary
A Father he is to a multitude
of four-legged creatures
guided by the Universe
to a home for the homeless
seeking nothing in Life
save all he has to give:
Love,...

Black Cat Magic (Rebel)
As the blade of my sword to the paleness of your rotten skin it drips
A hawk to your presence and then in your face seem to allow the universal to spit
I can respect a woman who can take a stand in life and love, not found begging daily on her knees
For emotions there will never be returned no matter what the wants, or the degree
Is it not a sin to covet another when one has a husband at home
To bring comfort to an ailing heart, in your mind of make believe, which is too far gone
I suppose different strokes for needy folks
You only...

Mystery blue eyes
Peering bright through the darkness
and into my soul
Peering bright through the darkness

Durango
a happy ending is possible...
it tiptoed through my mind, a whisper among noise;
a small font
among quaking bolded neurotic monoliths
imagine the terrible
it's safer,
but still
the noise
the constant noise
an unwanted rerun
annoying in its frenetic, persistent flickering
muted volume a euphemism
what the hell was I to do with this cat I'd rescued
intending to keep it a week at most
phone calls, social media posts, emails
she was so deserving
but unwanted
turned away
every shelter at...

First Snow
--for v.p.
She may not have seen snow
before, my feral cat, but sits
still as a statue here
with me on the stoop
regal and unperturbed
as the goddess Bastet
in Egyptian mythology
gazing out past long dead
stalks of weeds thrusting up
through this blanket
of white surrender.

Her Loving Parts.
My love reigns supreme in her loving parts
I see it in her golden eye and smile,
we hasten to each other from being apart
in her furry softness she has no guile.
But she has another place I cannot reach
some secret spot where in her mind she flies,
within there she has no sight or purring speech
If she stays there, then, surely I will die.
I have no choice but to hold her, just so
till eyes flutters open into the light,
and her nose suffused with her golden glow
and again we enjoy our silent night.
My Sally cat and...
