Porthos Starshipbroken

Porthos Starshipbroken? There was a dog on Enterprise Whose smell T’Pol like to exorcise– A beagle named Porthos, On Capt. Archer’s bed, he would repose. Where did Archer pick up this hound? Did he get him from a futuristic pound Where training was already acquired So he would be starshipbroken as required? It was left unexplained And the audience never ascertained How Archer did dispose Of the poop from Porthos? Would Archer find little gifts After especially long duty shifts From a pooch cooped in his quarter Prompting a cleanup by transporter? Would Porthos do like bad dogs Leaving soft logs On every deck Entailing a crew shoe check? Was the recycler used on his poo To make it into a shoe? Would you want to place your foot therein Wondering what you’re stepping in? When Archer gave cheesy snacks Giving Porthos intestinal attacks Who was blessed With cleaning the mess? Did Porthos have a litter box Or did Archer give him hall walks? All these questions here posed, In Star Trek: Enterprise were not disclosed. But lastly, there is one more complication That I have considered with much consternation. What really bothers me Is where that poor dog did his wee? Contest – Everyone Poops – Roy Jerden 07/29/15
