after putting our whippet down
after 14 years together
after a short escape to the coffee shop
you were in your car
still in out driveway
performing some necessary email
or message on your smartphone
after dropping me off
about to head out on
just a couple of more errands
on our official day off work
day of mourning
when i saw you still there
i called you
and told you to come inside
and make love to me
because i learned from mingus
how to ask for what i want
and how to be a better animal.
