HENRY

the place seems so empty now


18 and a half years

(and almost a third of that time

suffering renal and thyroid problems)


but he was as sweet-tempered

as any cat I've ever lived with...

and stubborn!!!...strong-willed little beast...


it kept him alive I think...

his will and our love and caring...

blessing of blessings


he went quickly...and at home...

he rejoins his brother William

(my bud...whom I wrote of long ago...)


wherever cat energies endure and continue...


and a reminder to all of us who think we've the crown of creation...

megalomaniacal so like the psycho who created everything

but takes no blame...


just how much these animal spirits

are our superiors

in just about every way....
