POEM: "A Dog Show"

A Dog Show


I know it’s just a show trial 
It’s a good dog that understands
you will kill him if he misbehaves
A world of justice won’t ever console you
I say and right then a bitch in heat marches
past his Yorkie with a bow in his hair who
sets after her crack (a little kid is monstered)
our man jumps up knocks over his chair etc.
returns 15 minutes later carrying the thing
And what do we have today on Saturday
that we didn’t have on Friday, huh?

I tried to ask him. No response.
