top 5 things my bunny likes to do (2)

i've decided to make the top 5 things about my bunny into a weekly (ish) thing that i post about sir rabbity.

thus!

1. lick me on the nose
2. SNUGGLE!! (he's been really attached to me lately, it's quite endearing)
3. discover new ways to try and flip his food bowl around
4. dig dens in my down comforter
5. stand up on his hind legs and sniff the top of his cage

(and he still likes to perch on my shoulder, as evidenced by the photo below)

author's note: i don't smoke, nor do i encourage smoking. i'm just using metaphors.

˙˙˙

the cold seeps into my veins
like cyanide into the air
a cigarette's ashes are scattered
upon the dusty shore of a lake lined with sand
is there no God to take my hand?

i ask only for forgiveness
retribution from all that i've done
is there no person who will understand
i don't know all the answers

i'm just a person
i'm just a figure, struggling to find her way
into the glass cabinet of treasures
that way God will keep me close, right?
right?

top 5 things my bunny likes to do

1. perch on my right shoulder
2. throw his water bowl around
3. listen to jack johnson
4. nibble on my fingers (and other things)
5. chatter to himself little secret rabbity things

BUNNY BUNNY BUNNY BUNNY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i bought a little bunny rabbit yesterday - he's about a year old, and is a spunky little netherland dwarf rabbit that i have named rubeus hagrid. and guess what else??

HE LOVES TO CUDDLE!!!!!!! seriously, he's my ideal bunny.

for those of you who have facebook, i've got an entire album now devoted to him, as well as a video... but i'll still throw up some pictures here for enticement's sake. ;)

in a bind

so here i find myself
hanging on a precipice
waiting on a windowsill
standing on a ledge.

you're about to tell me
all the things you struggle with
i don't want to hear that
because you try and put it on my shoulders.

get over yourself already
learn to take your own advice
i'm not going to keep giving it to you
because i hate babying you.

you don't deserve my help right now
so i'm going to give you my help right now
but i'm kind of in a bind right now
and i'm really starting to hate you.

i really don't want to hate you
but my heart isn't giving me a choice
because you're pushing me this far
and not giving me a goddamn break.

so here is where i find myself
standing on the edge of a building
trying to jump away from you
but you won't let me fall.

i want you to stop trying to catch me
i know that i'll land on my own feet
stop pulling me back to keep me there
it only makes it hurt more.

stop trying to hurt me
i know you're not doing it on purpose
but you need to grow up
and get your own life.
