#the poetry is absolutely amazing but ugh the art is breathtaking

[t4toro]

[ID: black and white scan of a poem titled Beastiary 1, written by B. L. Barr, most likely a page from an old Star Trek fanzine, the poem reads as follows:

Like a cat

Your graceful covenant

Your slender body

Hair

glossy and dark

Bearing

aloof and regal

Moving

silently

Sharp senses

Ears

tapering at the tip

Eyes

see all

and reveal

little.

Tell me

my feline Vulcan

whose touch

can make you

relax

and even

purr?

Perhaps....

mine?

below the poem is an accompanying art piece, a drawing of Mister Spock lying naked on his right side with his back facing the viewer, right arm against the floor supporting his upper body, his face is turned so that only his left profile faces the viewer. a black tail is extended from his tailbone, his legs taper into anatomically correct black cat paws in place of feet, left leg slightly bending at the knee to be in front of his other leg. his clawed left hand is extended to hold his left calf]
