Here's one by Swist Chmeeze that got me through a thing:
Locked in this car, the sun beats down,
Panting breath, but no one’s around.
Paws on the seat, I scratch and cry,
Heat is rising, and so am I.

Tongue is dry, no water near,
I wait for you, but I’m trapped in fear.
The air is heavy, I can’t escape,
Why did you leave me in this cruel mistake?

Please, come back—don’t take too long,
In this hot car, I don't belong.

Ha! This is probably what my dog feels when I leave it in the car with the heat on. Fantastic read.

I'm not sure exactly, but I believe it's called: It's Okay to leave your dog in a Hot car

I remember that when I was little, I used to read a lot of poems by Charles Bukowski, like Bluebird, and by Julio Cortázar, like The Future. Btw, great taste in poetry! :3

Have you read "Party Rock Anthem" by LMFAO yet? A good read for experienced poet enthusiasts.

You should consider one of shun yung shin's lesser known haiku's he made earlier on. It's called
"Lucky strike"

Smooth drag, ember glows,
whispers curl in midnight air,
luck strikes my lips.
