Walking down the street,
Bones often thinks,
he’s nothing more
than a piece of raw meat.  

Wolves are always giving him
that long look,
tongues hanging out of their mouths,
they’re drooling.  

Cops are just as bad that way.  

They watch him too,
the same look.  

They leave him alone.  
He’s glad for that.  

It’s sometimes good
not to be appreciated.  

Bobby

Bobby,

You speak words that are true - or rather write them.

Thanks dear Alison,

I'm glad this poem worked that way for you.

Love Bobby
