Vicious Dogs
They converge at the gate with vicious eyes crawling out of the skies and vengeance puffed up in their guts with lots of details engraved in tattoos painted on their skins.
The dogs carry a strange expression on their face; they are programmed and set in motion to create Mayhem and destruction to the neighbors in the town. The dog man and the dog boy roam up and down the street using the dog to create mischief and disrupt their neighbor’s heartbeat.
Dog attacks has been going on since 2019 when I come to this town, first it was man attack then it boils down to dog attack. The dogs have an assignment for me to die and so they come charging at me from across the street attacking the red broom and biting at the sand in my hand.
Just as they were about to sprang at me, a car drove down from the top of the street and broke up the dog mob that was coming after at me. The dog scatters in several directions with the crucifix wheeling toward the heavens and vexation of spirit choke the devil out of them and they suddenly became silent.
And when I thought everything was done, the chubby man with his naked back and a stomach hanging in front of him start throwing rocks from across the street and shouting at me. I stood at the gate watching stones gliding across my face, hitting on the Iron Gate and bouncing back in the street, a few fell into the school yard but I did not get hit.
The dogs converge in front of the gate and in front of every business place barking and running after the people as they walked down the street. The people cannot walk on the street in peace because of the dogs roaming the street, they chased after man, animal and beast and attack the people in the middle of the night.
The owners of the dogs have been warned but they keep walking up and down the lawn, they bore holes in the back of the fence, and create uproars at nights in the lion den; they attack strange dogs and man and people are afraid to cross the land, one of them have the mark of the beast and the devil planted in their feet.
They jump over the walls and leave dog litter in the yard; they intimidate the strangers, bite at stones and create commotions all over the town, the pest control is preparing for a dog’s day, when all the dog will be put on display, their owners and attackers will join the masquerade and the and marching band will join the parade and drive the dogs and their owners out of the town.
