oh muse,
must you be this way?
a feeling?
what do i do with a feeling?
and an undefined one at that
we have a great deal
i suffer greatly from mental illness
you occasionally give me good
things to write about
but it's four in the morning
and i've started five poems
because of this "feeling"
that you felt the need to wake me up with
anyway
it would be cool if we went back to the good stuff for a bit
i could use the ego boost

Dog Thirteen
Dog Thirteen June 4, 2023 Today was different. To be fair, all days are different now that I am a new dog. Every day I seem to be able to do something new- open my eyes, stand up, hobble around, wag my tail. Every day I get stronger and more comfortable in this body. It’s not bad, being a dog. Not so far, at least. I never have to go hungry, although we are feeding from our mother less and less and trying new foods that come out of a bag and a can. It’s a mixture. I wish I could tell the humans that I prefer the food from the can. I try to show them by picking out the kibble pieces and spitting them onto the ground, but they just laugh and think I am being cute. That feels frustrating, to not be understood. But I cannot stay mad for too long because the humans pick me up and pet my head and body and it makes me feel happy inside, and now that I know how to wag my tail, I try to do that a lot.
