I'm a Dog
I'm trotting along singing my song,
marking my territory here and beyond,
I'm a dog.
You'll see me here, there, everywhere,
especially in your underwear,
I'm a dog.
I smile, I frown, but never look like a
clown,
I'm a dog.
Yard's are a mess when I leave
my address,
I'm a dog.
A splish, splash, from me to your lap.
A burst, a thirst, number one's first.
A squat, a shock, a surprise, a thought,
all part of my plot.
A piece of doo from me to you,
I'm a dog.
marking my territory here and beyond,
I'm a dog.
You'll see me here, there, everywhere,
especially in your underwear,
I'm a dog.
I smile, I frown, but never look like a
clown,
I'm a dog.
Yard's are a mess when I leave
my address,
I'm a dog.
A splish, splash, from me to your lap.
A burst, a thirst, number one's first.
A squat, a shock, a surprise, a thought,
all part of my plot.
A piece of doo from me to you,
I'm a dog.

Mortem Immaturus in Maio: A Scene of Putrescence, Grief, and Rain
The grime-coated walls of a cement-made bodega house a family of two; her mother cries out beside her, howling, a grief-stricken tune—it is a dog-eat-dog world after all. Four walls echo silence and few.
The buzz of an old lightbulb— swarmed by a myriad of flying termites, the quiet whine of my panicked and labored breath, the heaving and puffing of a mother dog.
The skies cry out above us: its tears soaking the unclipped growth—that surrounds concrete foundations. A reek astir, odor of: wet loam, mold, fungi, and wood encapsulates us in a bubble, suffocating, with a...

under pressure
not knowing where your mind is lately
wondering where you went with your heart
first, you stopped talking to me kindly
then ignoring the dog
giving me the cold shoulder if I question
what was wrong
having made do with your venting as conversation
when you have jokes for everyone else
waiting my turn for a few minutes of the day
it really hurts when this is spent in silence
your eyes gazing off into the distance
you didn't used to be that way even a month ago
getting mad at me and bear because we feel it ...

Red Sky
1/30 NaPo write
The dog wanted wet sand for breakfast
so the car had the oceans scent in its nostrils,
skittling down single track roads
forcing bread van's and jogger's
to dodge inside plump hedgerow's.
The morning was damp and deafening
a larva lamp orange spilled out its warning
onto the clawing nails of white foam
that slapped a hand across
smooth wet sand.
She made her marks four at a time
barking back at the chasing tide
as I found a calmness in the throng,
a moment of solitude, sea glass green ...

There’s a Dog snoring (NaPoWriMo 3)
There’s a Dog snoring in my room.
Well,
the room for me as a guest.
The fold-out bed
goes where she is sleeping
so I’ll let her snore some more
And move her when she wakes up.
There’s a Dog snoring in the room.
Well,
Snoring and snorting
in the same tone
as my Grandma used to make.
There’s a Dog snoring in this room.
And I’m using the time
to write a poem
As it would be cruel to wake her,
And anyway,
I get the giggles listening to snoring.
Something about hearing sleep enjoyed ...

Dining Out Of Trash Cans
George was an ambitious fox. He is very cunning and intelligent, although he would eat out of trash cans, in the alleyway, in his element.
He takes food home, back to the family den, where his lady fox and cubs are in the forestry of the ends.
He could visit a lot of bins in one night, trying to find a nice delight, when one day he messed up and had quite a fright.
A booby-trap cage had crashed down and locked him inside. There was nowhere he could run, and nowhere he could hide.
He was trapped for the night. He had stepped onto the wrong lawn....

A Beautiful Story For Ugly Children
One day a dog bit the index finger of his master
the dog ran off with a bloody finger,
before the master could catch him
the dog came to a river and went onto a wooden dock
the dog looked down into the water
he saw another dog with a bloody finger and a shadow of a man behind him
the dog had no idea what he was seeing
The master grabbed the dog by the collar,
wrestled with the dog for several minutes
the dog dropped the finger out of his mouth
the master picked up his mangled, chewed up index finger,
and went back home ...

A Dog's Life
I'm puzzled by the muzzle
they've wrapped around my snout
it must have been because
of those times that I got out
I was only being friendly
while my master wasn't there
but the lady with the baby
started screaming in despair
The farmer with the sheep
went fumbling for his gun
I'd jumped the fence to play
and then I had to run
I couldn't wait to queue
when the butcher's shop
smelled yummy
so I made a quick escape
with a sausage in my tummy
The only thing I've...

Dog Stories and Other Oddities of Fate
Walking my dog Onyx this morning
An hour later than usual
Hit the pavement at 7am
Usually out the door at 6am plus or minus
First dog we engage with is a BIG poodle
Jet black and wearing a cone
Just got spayed yesterday
Dog's name is Sunday
My first city rescue dog is pictured here
Her name was Sunday, we changed it
Ginger became her name
I named her after Ginger on Gilligan's Island A beauty for a beauty
I tell the owner black dogs rule
We chat and I move on ...

Purebred
I fear that I will always love like a dog.
I fear that I will always sit at your door waiting —
fresh kill in between my jaws
— my canines sunk into the poor thing’s flesh.
“Look at me, I am here. I love you, I bring you kill.”
I fear that I will always love like a dog.
I fear that what we share in temperament —
the quick bite, the quick thrill
— is also what we share in doom.
“We are cut from the same cloth, mirroring one another. your past and my future.”
I fear that I will always love like a dog.
I fear that when the time...

Everyone Loves Dogs
Soon to be celebrating 1 year with Onyx
Our rescue dog from Texas
Came with the name Mabel
Changed it to Onyx to honor her Brindle coat
You save a dog
They save you
Nothing new there
My walk is 6am
It’s when NYC is actually quiet
Only people out are
Delivery people and Nurses
Going on a shift or coming home
Sometimes you get a GOOD MORNING
Other people with dogs half asleep
It’s a good life with Onyx
She licks my face often
Smiles and wags
Nothing better

The Loss
The loss of a pet
hits harder than you expect
when that little soul departs
for the rainbow hill in the sky
you are left with an emptiness
a pain like nothing you have experienced.
An ache so intense
it creates a void in your heart.
But as the days pass
memories start to patch it up
and eventually the chasm becomes a hole.
Stuffed with beautiful comforting moments.
When you remember how intensely they loved you,
how they were a part of your family
as surely as humans are.
How lucky you was to have the devotion of a...
