dreaming  Quit composing  woudya

                                                 mete out clearly  sharply

words woke him

                   could suppose they gave him permission to use the head

urinating he thought  he was composing   Chainsaw  Hacksaw  Buzzsaw

                                                                                 Chain  Hack  Buzz

coud hearem bitch in the bedroom Don’t call us that.

they could read his mind But yawere ya absolutely were  Pulled my ass out of a going-one-way sling

Don’t call us that.  Please.

                             they werent really worried they knew he wasnt partial to nicknames

hed only use them in the future teaching lessons  or to recall his deep affection for them his respect that they saved his ass

You were truly magnificent

                              Say thank you

they chuckled conspiratorially

                                  No biggie Daddy-O, no biggie.

 

    fast asleep  awakened

                                               noise   in the livingroom

he sat up two cats were poised at the foot of the bed their attention riveted on the hall livingroom beyond

                                                                                                               queen sat on the steamer trunk under the window she too was fixated on the doorway hallway

he slipped out of bed

was naked

    didnt do the cinema HELLO  WHOS THERE

cats primedremained steadfast  eyes big their vision working the dark

silently he went up the hall into the livingroom

                                                no sooner stepped inwas rocked by a fist on the temple staggeredthrew a hand outcaught the sofa table eyes went to his coach coachs eyes convinced him he gathered himselfdidnt dropped though some element wanted him down  he was yanked off the tablespun right into a telegraphed haymaker meant for his face tucked his chin took the brunt on the forehead widows peak that couldnt have been comfortable was rocked backwards into flurry of kidney punches glanced again coachs eyes convinced him  he spunthrew an elbow caught bone skull  was banged forward a knee meant for his balls turned his hip took it on the thighbehind him a hiss from Hell shriek queen shreddingclimbed an assailants back bit his neck slashed his face with both paws claws took an eye assailant to his right  tom a heavyweight  slammed into the outside of his knee it turned inwardcrumpled he fell tom lacerated his shins thighs bit his hands as he tried to fend him off coach nodded but his leg collapsedhe hit the wall with his shouldertook heavy claws upcross his back then he was light and the guy before him with the bad hand wrist was slow to get his arms up avoid the buzzsaw of claws that raked his chest throat lips face a bloody slicedslashedfuckin mess rendered in seconds

                                                  cats leapt away growling deep in their throats  hissing  backs arched

fuckedup three hit the doordoorjambs stumbled out cryingmoaning they escaped down the hill

looked at coach 

                  put a stool down in his corner

    Chain  Hack  Buzz

                            Don’t call us that.
