Dog

Look at a dog.
A dog is thinking. Unlike
A cat, say. A cat is sleeping.
And dreaming of more sleep.

But look at a dog.
His tail is a separate entity.
Unlike a horse.
Horsetail is pragmatic.

Check out this dog.
Not that one, the other --
With the dripping tongue.
There is nothing as salivic.

I knew one named Bogey.
I’ve met no man, smarter.
Even his owner. → Dumb,
Compared.

Ever hear one in October
Barking far away? Yeah.
It chills a part of you you
Knew not was there until.

Look at a dog.
They say a chimp is closest
To who we are. Look at a dog
And say Bullshit with me.
