When Pets Die

When Pets Die

A Poem by Davidgeo
"

.

"
this world
made of heroes
made of villains
made of regulars
made of you
made of me
made of chaos
made of structure
bred from purpose
born of reason
among wonder
among mystery
the mundane
among the impossible
the recycled
among creation
into absolute
total
and complete
destruction
and such is life
and so is death
and so is memory
to be forgotten
made to live
then made to die
this is the world
this is our life

Like many of your poems, I like this. I think it sticks to your strengths in particular. The short and to-the-point lines that rely on the strength of their words' meaning have always been a strong point for you. It kind of reminds me of Charles Bukowski, but it's definitely still you as well. Thanks for sharing.

When our pets die, we feel the grief with an intensity. I don't understand those who say, it's just an animal. Our pets are family. They are creatures of habit and they are always there. Their absence hurts. If you have lost a pet you will understand that. I know you have a cat. I very much like your posted image of the sun and moon.
