New Poem

meow meow kitty kitty death rattle

we don’t know
why you died –
that morning

Kort saw you
steal into the yard
meow meow kitty cat –

death rattle buzz
of flies swarming
around your corpse

when we came home
that day gaseous spasms
jerking a life

force, I stood over
your body watching
nerves refire, remembering

how sound is the last
sense to go
before passing
