I'd like to be a cat
I actually had a strange theory when I was little that god had popped the soul of a goofy over excitable dog into my body. I had just read about reincarnation and wondered if maybe I had been a really good dog in a past life and got bumped up to human this time around lol
Lovely! You are an artist whose brush draws words on the canvas.If I could be an animal
I might have to be a statue.
Then I 'd never die and you could love me always.
I wouldn't have wings like a bird. They'd break off.
I wouldn't be a brontosaurus or a giraffe or even a horse,
with long parts that snap off.
I'd want to be whole, always.
Not falling apart.
I wouldn't be a tall statue that people throw wreaths on
and worship.
I be something small and roundish, I think, so I could
fit in your pocket and you'd hold me in your hand.
Then I could be with you always.
I would be your pet.
If everybody else left
I'd say...I'm here
with you.
