go-getter, and yet you’re
a zoned-out mess.

When Lord Byron lived at Cambridge University, he greatly increased campus diversity. He lived with a bear. They were quite the pair. For the poet, the dog ban was a perversity.

POEM: Silly Cat
I think you know my silly cat
It perches on heads like a hat
It catches critters and sets them free
cause it finds canned food more tasty,
but it loves the sport of the hunt
and can perform acrobatic stunts
between bouts of blissful slumber

TODAY’S RANDOM THOUGHT: Blind Dog
This dog followed us around during our tea plantation walk in Munnar. It was a fine-looking dog with a warm disposition. It seemed quite healthy, except for the fact that it was missing its left eye.
This made me think. If you take in a blind dog, does that make you its seeing eye human?
