He’s My Super Cat
I Love Him
1/2 of India sits
in The World’s Largest Blackout
I sit on My Deck
with My Black Astro
lying across Me
while I wait
for a call from My Realtor
maybe with an offer
on My Mother’s Island House
complete with Windmill
& Solar Tracker
Snow White & Black Jesus
went out to a beach
for a picnic
They ate peanut butter
& jelly
& threw the crusts
to The Gulls
They held hands along
The Breaking Surf
They made love
in The Sand
–
Snow White went back to Her Cottage
but Black Jesus had no home
He stayed on The Shore
& waited for Snow White
to come out & play
But She Didn’t Come
–
The next Day it rained
but Black Jesus waited
He got drenched
but all He could think about
was Snow White
& so He waited
The Sky cleared partially
& He saw a Rainbow
He ran up to Snow White’s Cottage
& alerted Her to what He saw
She said, “Thank You Black Jesus —
You Can Come In Now
I Love You”
