Bulldog Puppies
bulldog puppies
faces like aging tugboats
nudge their momma
roller coaster
you reach
the high notes
embarrassed our hammock gossips
homemeow
upon this huge stump
I, too,
am oak
looking into each other
we have seen so much
it is possible to live
within our own code
fifty years together
‘what I forget’ she states
‘he won’t remember’
