illuminated by electricity
give off flames that are
simulate real burning wood,
hearing aids that are so
small they sometimes get
lost in one's ears, making
them oh so hard to retrieve,
cats sit on the mantel
cats sit on backs of couches
cats sleep on the bed where
humans have slept in order
to be close to the ones who
they perceive are protectors,
windows covers by curtains
keep out prying eyes but
voyeurs look through blinds
to see what has been bidden,
we cook meals on the stove,
in air fryers or in mounted
microwave ovens, in the
hopes we will have more
than enough if guests were
to appear unexpectedly...
our news comes from papers
or from the web or from
word of mouth that is so
easily passed from one to
another without regrets...
we are the children of a
lesser god that believes in
sharing and hiding nothing
from it host of followers.
