Designer Mini Dog People

Are you one of them, that never fails
to disgust me, sitting across from me
on public transportation, talking trash
to a dog's head, sticking out of a
knock off over-sized Louis Vuitton.

Are you one of those people,
parked on a  park bench, on a sunny afternoon,
crowded eatery, or maybe walking the mall
looking for bargains, sipping a six dollar latte
from Starbucks? 

I see you with your designer mini mutts,
heads sticking out of those carriers,
bows in their sometimes dyed hair, rhinestone
or diamond studded collars, polished nails.
You talking to them as if they understand.

Sometimes I wish I had a gun, others
a knife would easily do.
