Annunciation Valentine

I called him Buster
Of the Downward Gaze
And the first time we sat down together
 
We got drunk on the sun
And sat there for a dog’s age
Staring at one another
 
Cats come from magic stories
Dogs from novels or plays
He finally announced
 
As you can see I’m one of the former
Thus the gray mourning cloak
And these yellow-green eyes
 
After me the invisible world
Begins for you – I’ve come
To carry you across
