a city boy's guide to the south

Welcome, friend, to the ramblings of a southerner by choice.

a close brush with cosmic tranquility

Expect her to pounce
into your august lap,
all snarly and smelly,
this small deranged kitten,
ready to spread
her glorious scent
insolently
on your bare legs.

This little kit
starts her motor again
she knows she can wag it
and I'll just come running
like some poor addicted
leaf-hopping mantid
hoping to get some
before
she lops off his head.
