Dog Bark

I remember walking 
Through a dark alley
Eons ago. All I could hear
Was chirping crickets
About halfway, my whole body  
Violently jerked by...
Loud, furious barking....
I never saw coming!
Unchained Doberman Pinscher
Behind a fence. Boy, did it..
Scare the living hell out of me! 
I did flinch alright...
