Dogs

I don't know why a family would want
A pit bull,
No.
Two pit bulls in their house

But they do

There's this thing
This crazy thing

Wild west

Buffaloes
Fires
Temptation
And not going back
Not giving in
Standing up

Crests
Pits
Wind through the hair
Charging

Free spirit
Travelling

Taking care of the ones you love
And the ones adopted

Giving in
Letting go
For no good reason

If anything
Against good sense


Puppy
More puppies

Why?

They tear the house apart
And stink
And puke

Nevertheless
It's better luck this time
Better luck next time

Despite all that
It's love and kisses
And slobber
And paws
And toenails

And more trips to the store
For big bags of dog food

One hundred and fifty pounds

For more trouble
From crazy four legged
Wolf crazy
Moon howling
Mangy stupid dogs

Smiles
Smirks
And bubbles
