That could have been me. Slinging drinks and writing lines until dawn crept over me. You saved me. And then you destroyed me, so I sit here writing lines in the night.

Spirit Animals

You are a cat. No loyalty, Pure emotion, Easily distracted By shiny objects. I am not domesticated, So neither dog Nor the wolves that bore them, For they are pack animals. Not even the lonely, regal tiger Is my natural peer, For I soar above others: A dragon. Older than others Wiser. Fiercer. Unconquerable, Save […]
