Oh, canine noodles!
Now it is only left to me
To wonder - will your offspring be
Poms, pugs or poodles?...Read more of this...

...ght yield returns,
And a handsome word or two give help,
Here, after your kind, the mastiff girns
And the puppy pack of poodles yelp.
What, not a word for Stefano there,
Of brow once prominent and starry,
Called Nature's Ape and the world's despair
For his peerless painting? (See Vasari.)

There stands the Master. Study, my friends,
What a man's work comes to! So he plans it,
Performs it, perfects it, makes amends
For the toiling and moiling, and then, _sic transit!_

...re calls my time
I'll blandly quit and take my winnings.
I'll hie me to some Sleepydale,
And feed the ducks and pat the poodles,
And prime my paunch with cakes and ale,
And blether with the village noodles.
And then some day you'll idly scan

And oysters can slumber in pails.

...ith furry flesh,
not hoop skirts or push up bras
rib removal or liposuction.
It is not for male or female dogs
that poodles are clipped
to topiary hedges.

If only we could love ourselves
like healthy babies burbling in our arms.

Why should we want to live inside ads?
Why should we want to scourge our softness
to straight lines like a Mondrian painting? ...Read more of this...
