Here's a song I wrote as a tribute to my dog Martha, who passed away April 8th, 2011.  She was one of the few pockets of pure goodness in this world, an amazing muse, and easily the best friend I ever had.  As strange as it sounds, I feel like the best cues I've ever gotten on being a good person came from her.  

Lyrics:
My shadow fills my day with light
chattering strides
first to break the first when im by
life on paws
sure to not chase another girl
but perhaps a squirrel

your bark
put life's bite in slumber
my little beast
you've reached the core of my heart
this love knows no leash

your glow
evicts woes like slumlords
id buy you furs
but, it seems life cursed me
by doing it first

three faithful fangs keep guard of her mouth
2 bulging eyes that idolize me
knows her best friend from the ankles down
and that which leaves her
feeds her

feline
wish i could be
with nine
four-legged lives
spent by
your side caterwauling to the skies

your glow
evicts woes like slumlords
id buy you furs
but, it seems life cursed me
by doing it first

Garden

Like Q and U, You and I go, together,
like frozen cavemen and white snow
a mammoth-sized love that'll never die

after we're long departed
and most of our scraps descarted
they'll find both our hearts beating side by side

when long teeth are out of fashion
for tigers and I'm a dashing
fossil hung in a museum
our love'll stop by just to see him
remembering
how

unlike our gods, our love was real,
on our first date we invented wheels
popped a woolie with my spear

though in time long before fire
your smile lit up the entire
cave
while I drew deer on the walls

though we've been reduced to ashes, and soot,
brushed right through
in history classes
two footnotes in love for all of time

we died at the teeth of starving
t-rex's defying darwin
with hearts that evolved before our minds
