little furry beast

A wet nose in my face

        is for me far more effective

                than my noisy alarm

And far less traumatic.

        I need some companionship

in my cold dark

                        stumblings.

Why take a bath

                all alone

                        when you can watch

 a kitten

        plotting her attack?

Its often very successful

                        purr and claw

while I smile and bleed.
