Pangur Ban

sullen-
oh!
my sullen boy,

don't you know i've missed you?

and your darling Pangur-paws
where, many times, i've kissed you.

drabble, Pangur, all day long!
the stench of it
adorns me.

you know what i'd like,
Pangur Ban?
a scent
that doesn't bore me.

my lap, my love, is
still quite warm
as it was this past dawn

when i moved your sleeping head to leave.
you woke
to find me gone.

come here, Pangur, kitten sweet,
your gaze like a sad poem,

don't you know
i've missed you so,
i hate to see you lonesome.

is your collar clasped too tightly?
is your voice quite sore

from the howling that you did-
last night,
the night before?

you look to me
with sullen eyes,
you've missed me, haven't you?

ah, Pangur, dearest,
trust me now,

i loathe the separation too.
