Even when Jodrig
fails to show
for the promised date
or comes
on the wrong day
or comes too late
Tibbles never
lets her down
he comforts
with his rough tongue
on her smooth thigh
or gazes at her
with his one good
and one closed eye
or purrs her
to happiness
even if her life’s a mess
or she depressed
he seems to know
the time to snuggle
his head against
her breast
or simply lay his paw
upon her open jaw
but when Jodrig
gets it right
and stays the night
for nightcap
or night love
then snores to sleep
Tibbles moves between
he and she
and snuggles down
where he’s meant to be.
