“Being a creature of the night, it is an obvious spirit animal.”
“Ah, so you identify as a skunk?”
“That’s not funny, Gordon. Do that one more time and I take back the spotlight.”

Rain (an acrostic poem)
Revealing each tear slowly
As the thought of you not being here sets in
It soon becomes a torrent, soaking the earth in front of me
Not that I noticed. I was lost in the emotional downpour
Social (an acrostic poem)
So many people together in close proximity
Ordinarily that could be a fun time for the crowd

It forced us to find other ways to be close while being farther apart
And while it wasn’t perfect, it was sometimes enough
Letting us dip our toes into the sea of being…
Best (an acrostic poem)
Being top dog was what she had strived for all her life
Except now she wondered about what the pole position cost her
So she decided that being number one in society wasn’t that important

Still (an acrostic poem)
Something about sitting down, eyes closed, not moving
The outside slows down and the inside opens up

Buddy (an acrostic poem)
Being with you is one of the best things in my life
Under the full moon, with mischief on our minds

Determined to make our mark on this world
You know, like the tatts we gave each other
Train (an acrostic poem)
Taking time to learn a new task
Repeating it over and over
As it becomes a part of one’s being
It meant that if you get on track
Nothing will stop your locomotion
