why be scared
of familiar sounds
it is still there
in its haunt
under some steps
there
after years of absence
for a dish
blind handout
scraps collected
familiar hands and smell
it all passed
wiped from view
away from street
away from heart
it left without notice
but haunted
crept shyly
from favorite nook
your address
was his
why be scared
the pet is in the sky
yet you still carry treats
it carries you in mind

sadly, many do carry scraps forever wishing for a return
instead of moving on, loving and feeding a new needy pet
but this isn't just about pets, anyway
