Droning On

Guard dogs try to sleep in a deaf corner.
Smaller barkers do what they do best
from under bed or table.

Large bugs in the sky
keep blinking and teasing.
They jig and jag
and only the dogs
and a few elderly cats
can hear them.

Whirligigs descend only to disappear,
spinning wings bite the air.

K9 units are advised
to use extreme caution,
it's almost as if
we know that they know.
