Jealousy

My dog lays 
snoaring loud 
          dreaming of bones
and tug of war.
and his snout out the window 

I lay awake
questioning and 
holding in a 
piss.

Killing myself


with a cigarette.

???? you got me here... now why would you rather want to dream of bones, ... I'm sure some where inside of a dog, he too wishes he could sit there and smoke a cigarette, ... a good and fun poem... in other words, do you think they envy us?? enjoyed~ LINDA
