Missing My Max

You did not call
You did not bother
Did you think
I was busy with Father

Your furry face
I see each day
Passing by
Along the electronic highway

I reach out to touch
Your sweet paw
I long to feel
Your gentle maw

But you're far away
Across the wide sea
And I'm here alone
With nobody

I miss you, Love
I miss your sweet paws
I miss your lashing tail
And your imperious laws
(though not so much
your always sharp claws)

You do not call
You do not write
It's almost as though
We've had a fight
(did i miss the memo
while watching some dumb demo?)

You have to know
I wouldn't have left
But for the fear
Of being bereft
(Of my last standing parent, so to speak;
he doesn't stand much because he's so weak)

I miss you, Max
My lovely Boy
I wish I were still
Your favorite neko toy

Saw a Car

Saw a car
Didn't drive it too far
Felt real fine
Wished it were mine
When such a feeling comes over me
There's an overwhelming need for money
But times change
Feels strange
Car stayed put
I left
