Have you noticed
How dogs find
Places
That give them a
Snug fit
Maybe they are
Agoraphobic
On a huge king size bed
Mocha will sidle up to me
All along my leg
When I move away
a big drama happens
long sighs
hurt look
resigned pout
pretense
that she couldn’t care less
she will also move
to the opposite edge
of the bed
but soon
as if she senses
the void
the empty air
she has sidled back
dogs are such
touchy feely creatures
their only
emotional expression
wonder
if they had words
would they become like us
constipated
touch-me-not
