Dogs
DOGS
I don’t like them
I am not alone in this
Cats don’t like ‘em either
It’s just not fair
I’ve never bitten any of them
I’ve never peed on any of their lawns
I’ve never chased any of their bicycles
Yet they feel able to do this
With impunity to me
If I bit one there would be
Outcries from the Animal Groups
Legal action
Shame and ostracism
But I think about it
In secret sometimes
Just imagine
Man bites dog
I’d make theheadlines.
Every man has his day
