PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

today
I smell like a dog
but blessedly
I still
taste like a cat
mind me not
now
of my utter
nonsensical
tirade
twas an emotional
train wreck
this morning in my thoughts
trying as I have been
so terribly hard
only to achieve so little
from such efforts in return
but perhaps that is but
just my narrow view
it could be worse
my hope filled spirit chants
she could have been put down
and no joy from her innocent
canine spirit
would you have had the pleasure
of seeing rebound back
to its full loving joy
though foster care to me it feels
a semblance of a home for her
it likely seems
it's hard to see the bigger
much more beautiful picture
when chaos swirls around your
eyes
as they rest abruptly upon
the minor destruction of a
beloved piece of furniture.............
