What I once considered to be my bedroom
Where I would, you know, like chill out
Listen to the tune of my thinking thoughts,
And feel only a little, only a tad distraught
But only due to the pre eminent onslaught
Of the pre eminent problems and perils
Of practicing principles, pardoning peoples
Myself included, in all our endless evils.
What I once considered to be my bedroom
Has become my dog's toilet, that angel
The carpet splatter-painted in shit-stains
Like the coat of a stray, speckled sheep
Whereupon I roll and weap (NO TREAT!)
I could justify or punish either of one us.
Well, punishment already for me would be
That if I am failing to get her out enough
Then there you go, lazy and careless man.
Now pick it up... light a candle if you can
Place it there and prostrate for a prayer?
Rather than enacting the pun---this one:
Which is to beat the living shit out of her
Father, I feel I do not deserve this damn
Dog's disgusting, deliberated disobedience
Over and over--- sometimes twice a day
As I am sure that I walk her plenty indeed
And I treat her so very compassionately
Despite behaving in such a way to enrage.
Could it be a canine version
Could it be a canine version of trick or treat?
