haiku (in memory of Tally-Dog)

I resist the urge

to save the dust bunnies that

are made of your fur.

haiku

Come, let me whisper

sweet nothings in your shell-like

ear, "It's almost Spring!"

R.I.P. Talamasca 1995-2008

Talamasca, better known as Tally, The Great Mole Hunter is at peace.

I can think of no better obituary than the words we repeated to him over and over during his final days:

"Tally's a good dog!"

haiku

Sometimes I wonder

what the Chinese who make our

stuff must think of us.
