Let me tell you about Daphne

Daphne got stuck 
under the bed,
and then…
I had to get her out 
from under the bed,
my dumb ass dog. 

A tug of war, 
paws and whining 
ensued…

and then,,,,
I won. 

Someone 
had an accident.

Someone 
was hiding. 

After the battle…
we had a discussion 
about going under the bed.
