lester

i found this. apparently i started a poem about him a few years ago. never finished it. here it is in horribly - emphasis on horrible - rough draft form. dont judge. im just rather amused by its horribleness.

Snorkling and honking and snorfing
wheezy breaths and gurgles
His face against my own; inhaling me noisily

Walking on a grave like the best of them
Craning his neck in the air
His big amber eyes fixated
ostrich like in his enthusiasm
my fingers spooning out his broth

his poofy tail swishes in the air
intoxicating; fluffy
twitching before the pounce
a menacing blow to the sparkly flamingo
a tentative roar, mehrrr

a kitty cat by darwin standards
yet actually a mixed species
a puzzle darwin has never
stumbled across in the galapagos
goose ostrich lion kitty
