Sweet smelling smoke
swirls
in languid seduction
to dance in the air
on gentle currents
kissing the senses
with
ephemeral tendrils
and promise
a moment of serenity
pause and watch
breathe deep
Who is it that decided
that cats putting their
butt in your face
is a sign of
love and trust?
For every night
her butt is snuggled
into the hollow
of shoulder and cheek
as she nuzzles in
to the blanket with me
and when she farts
in the direction
of my nose?
I need to know who to blame.
