We must have cats


Rats & bats,
We must have cats...
To rise out of the fishbowl
And say That's THAT!

(But the sad thing is
That when you have no fish
It means that Somebody ate them....
And no matter how cute
The cat will be mute
Because he got his own tongue
To plead the Fifth
On the fish.)


So, if you live in a fishbowl like This Cat
That is Confining and Small and Lowly
You must rise above it
And keep your head up,
And use up your nine lives
Quite Slowly.

Feelings

please tell me these feelings will end the nameless ones with no face the terror with no name, the memories hidden in dreams. each day they're getting less losing weight not getting fed by my choice. but still they persist made a habit by past munchings on the tidbits i threw them by accident. as they waste away i make new creations in my head to replace them. ones with no relations who will not check my past feelings to make sure they're ok. new feelings with the stability to stand on their own two feet though young and new. let them die. death to the traitors who took away my life. i will make new ones to rise again a resurrection of the just. --March 27, 2002

Is it enough

today i let go of something that wasn't mine -- your love. you leant it to me for a while but then you took it back again. i tried to play tug of war because i thought it was mine. but you reminded me it was yours all along to give and take as you chose.
