Pet Sitting??????

You want to know about it The bad memories, the pain Ok just wait for a bit Ill have to jig it out my brain It happened in the middle of May Glen my friend was off to Spain I remember it was a sunny day A few months before I dated his sister Jane “Come around please, pet sit” “Jane and I will be gone five days” “It will be only for a little stint” “The dogs just eat and want to laze” So off I go up the hill, House No 7 A beautiful mansion, the best on the road You could almost feel as if you were in heaven With a gate that had a 6 digit code An eloquent man answered the door Handed me the leashes and said he’d be back a five “Don’t surprise them” and he said no more I heard the car as it left the drive Sniff, Sniff, then, it happened A huge black object almost snapped off my nose I caught the rottweiler by the skin of it neck The chiwawa was dangling from my nuts and my hose I screamed colourful words but for you I’ll use “What the heck” I could not let go as I kick the rottweiler in the nuts It squealed, then growled it went wild I punched it as hard as I could right in the guts Then I ran upstairs with a chiwawa hanging screaming like a child I dove through the upstairs window to the grass With a chiwawa squeezing my bits But this time with a rottweiler attached to my ****. The rottweiler landed first with me on top as we hit I suffered a broken collar bone, a leg and an arm The rottweiler was out but the chiwawa was hanging on I didn’t think the chiwawa would cause so much harm Till I ripped it from my loins and with my good arm threw it far and long I fell on the ground in pain, I thought this was the end And as if a miracle an angel stood sent from heaven It was the familiar face of Glen my trusty friend He said what you doing at no7 we waiting at no 11.

This had me cracking up from the first. I used to have a Rottweiler, so that made it all the more funny to me! Only she would have took out your legs instead of your nose...lol Thanks for sharing this one with me! I might have missed it otherwise, I come here and I have to pick and choose from so many good poems to read, and I don't have a lot of time.

Ditto to what Lamptey wrote. Just read your other poem about the girl and the two stones. This is another ace! You could really put together a terrific collection of short stories based on poems like these. Great plot twist in this one as well. Shall I call you Mr. Hitchcock? Well done!! Love, Carolyn
