Sheba, the Family Dog

Her brown hair shiny in the sun
Her black hair makes her
invisible at night.
Her pitbull face makes you step back
Her piercing red eyes could hypnotize,
Telling you not to screw with her.

Her mission is to protect her master
and his children
All who live in this house-
Do not even think of entering
when the Master is asleep.
You will not make it three steps to the door.
She will chew you up and spit you out
like a hairball.
With no regrets, just satisfaction.
That another day has gone by
and she has accomplished
what she was put here for-
The family of this house 
Has not been harmed at all!

The best bodyguard ever.
