Dog Poetry
When the whole world's got you down
and the blues keep coming around
do not fear for i am here
and just for you i'll play the clown
i'll woof woof woof and howl
until i get you to smile
then i'll stop right at your feet
with a red rose between my teeth

Don't Remember Me
When my number comes up
and death draws near
i will depart this world
without regrets or fears
i hope i go as quietly
as i have lived my life
one full of both joy and strife
i don't want to be reembered
for being poetically correct
nor for awards my work begets
when you think of me
my last hope will be that
you see me as someone who
lived their dream of
connecting with humanity
through the languge of
my heart poetically

Forever
this could be the love
that lasts forever
or it could be the one
that ends tonight
at this moment as
your eyes look
directly at me
i feel such tender
feelings for you as you
take me in your arms
and lean so close to me
i can not help but think
you are the one for me
but you don't say much
of anything at all
tonight i feel your heart
is mine forever
but when tomorrow comes
i'll go back to wondering
if this is love to you
or just a fling

Fortunes Fool
in a rare moment of clarity
he realized his rise to riches
did not make him wiser
nor less boorish
having seen a vision
of his sole life's revision
life seemed nothing less
than a lie
throwing fortune to the wind
he will begin his life again
among the paupers without friends
once again
