Pavane For Some Dead Cats

1. backend drags liver shunt
2. treats do not tempt
throws up one last time in the wardrobe

joyful horizon narrowed to a single valley

3. fleas thread silver fur, gristle body
sleeve hooked by claw, going under
4. chest burdened with a white mass
5. zenith, chokes, then spasms
6. pools of urine gather around rear end

gathering signposts unknown territory

7. depth-lost food bowls lose
8. Systemic neurosis clouds morning sunshine

those "kill me" eyes lurk here at the frontier

9. a spider-web of fields laced with spores
fibro sarcoma, waiting to erupt

signposts point to grief
neon turquoise fish flit between mountain passes

10. shiny plastic punctures search in vein
