Two Poems

INSPIRED BY YOUR BROWSING HISTORY
 
Flourish enter.
Guard: He brings you figs.
Cleo: Let him come in.
Flourish exuent.
Rare Egyptian content.
‘Tis strange.
THE ART OF DOG TRAINING
 
Bears little resemblance to the training of Art, our dog.
Art and the coffee maker sigh simultaneously.
I pour freshly brewed get the hell over it
Into a mug, steam rising like from a manufacturing plant,
The one I got laid off from.
But I never met a dog unworthy of love
Unless that dog was a human.
