Writing in Purrsive – 0113

Raw Poetry by Rev. Shakes Spear

Writing in Purrsive

Writing poetry with Santino:
he helps me turn the pages,
and he moves the pen just so,
but I don’t think he knows
all of his letters yet...
maybe half the alphabet.

He writes in all capitals
in an unpracticed clunky cursive.
He can’t spell worth a hell,
but he conjured the term ‘purrsive’
which really is a language
standing on its own.
Those that understand it
know a Feline Soul.
