Night Guard Dogs
Hark!
It’s getting dark!
Long gone to nest, the lark…
But for the mongrels
Good nominees for Satan’s laurels,
Just for their vicious teeth that spark,
Time to interminably bark
And liberties take
With canines; uncanny mark
That resilient flesh break,
On their victims in amusement parks
Producing un-amusing facsimile of shark’s.
Night guard dogs,
Forever, I have cancelled night jogs.
