Short Span Puppy Mind

Puppy sees a fly
Hears distant bark, forgets fly
Lies asleep under sun.

Yes, they are. Written for my brothers puppy, Kiri. She is a basenji he brought over from S. Sudan. Her name in the local tribal language means palm bell. Basenjis, when used to drive game into nets, wear bells so they can be heard. The breed does not bark but does do a cute "baroo" noise when greeting you.
