Emotionless

Indelible earthquake of tawdry love
spatiotemporal twisting contortionist bodies
incommodious affection a mere irritation
exasperation at the blizzard response
peculator of a once trusting heart
now nothing but icy supplemental lust
weary nostalgia where feeling existed
just a cold embrace, emotionless

Kitten Hunts

A radish garden in Iona, where plant and dirt align
beetles no bigger than pistachios crawl, to nature’s grand design

Reflections in the eyes of an eager hunting kitten
mystery of finch and bug, looking to get bitten

Each X-factor critter more intriguing than the rest
worth a follow for a while, until he comes upon the nest

A shadows eclipse as he begins the silent crawl
fire of a frugal chase that risks ending in a sprawl

Shillelagh paws reaching for their tiny mark
a feline hunter, as deadly as a shark

Swooping in with shrieking calls and feathers flash
the startled kitty makes a splash

Defeated this time with wounded pride
he runs, to find a place to hide
