my girl cat Phillip is in the Chinese
cabinet
while Max my white Chihuahua wrestles with a rope
young Paddymelon all bright apricot and ginger the
newest
in my band stands watching them he’s noting how to be
a pet
I don’t believe they see themselves as mine
as
in
belonging to me heart and soul and mind although they do
come to me when
I cry out names that
might be the food
and I
let them sleep in my bed too
I have hopes that they will learn me all
these skills
in time and
I will settle down surrounded
purring happiness in nets if not in love
