little puppies
just getting the all clear
to walk and run and jump and play
on all four legs
and here comes
a lump
a possible tumor
and why is this perfect puppy
not showing perfection
in her vet visits???

catching up
with poetry
feels like
catching up
with feelings
with emotions
with processing things
i have a hard time
processing

i suppose
that’s
a good thing

i starting thinking
in poetry
about a year ago

but today i started
dreaming in poetry
for the first time

(does it [all] mean anything?)
