Dog ThoughtsHe sat with slightly tilted head.
He didn't wish to be misled.
The command seemed arbitrary,
and, frankly, pointless - very.
Why would he want to sit like stone
when he could be burying a bone?
As a proud bulldog of station,
he had some reservation.
Chewing on nonviolent resistance
and his owner's strange insistence,
he decided not to risk it.
After all, it was a...

Do All Dogs Go To HeavenTwo best of friends met in a place where most animals go after life.
Ballyregan: "I run all my life... until I retired."
Scurlogue: "I've won many races, but I had one race where I ran back and not finish the race."
Ballyregan: "Why?"
Scurlogue: "Because I wanted you to win!"...

War And Peace
Altho' 'tis something
any sane man would disdain,
should abstain from and abhor,
there are those I condemn
who choose
to cry, 'Mayhem!'
and let loose the dogs of war.
Meanwhile,
no need to think twice,
I prefer a 'purr',
to play nice and release,
tho' they may be old hat,
the pussy-cats of peace.

Holding the BagIf you own a dog, at some point you
Will be carrying a bag of poo,
At least if you’re considerate
And follow laws regarding s#%*.
There are some, though, who flout the rules
And think that bagging crap’s for fools.
A joke said, aliens did land
And, struggling to understand,
Determined that the smarter race
Were not the humans, for their place
Was...

Peep GameWhat’s Your Name, What’s Your Sign?"
I thought that was just a Biggie line.
Then I learned me and Dogs don’t relate
That’s for all you '82s and '94s, check the date.
Big heart thats no biggie
peep game
my words also carry weight,
I speak with purpose never fake.
A man of many skills, no doubt,
But cooking? Nah I’d rather...

MY BRAIN DOGI have a brain.
But not just any brain — I have a brain dog.
It doesn’t sit. It doesn’t stay.
It runs. Fast. Far. Wild.
It sniffs every thought ever thought.
Dreams in 4D. Overthinks lunch plans like it's nuclear policy.
Sometimes... it chases shadows.
Dark ones. Horror-movie-type thoughts.
So I lock it up.!
“Time-out,” I say. “No more mind mazes today.”
And there...

LostI lost my beautiful dog today
I lost my dearest friend
She took with her
a piece of my heart
I’ll never feel again
I know you’ll say
there will come a day
when your heart is filled with another
but you didn’t know
my Chuli girl
A dog unlike any other
I’ve never cried
or felt...

Holocaust, this tragic word, millions of lives lost in its
name, and it has not ended. This time,
it is the
Palestinians who are victims of a people
who have learned only one lesson to survive
one has to be
and able to tell lies and
cynically play on Europe’s common guilt.
Hitler wasn’t able to remove the Jews;...

That Canteen GuyJust a few days in, college felt new,
Chilling in the canteen with my unusual crew.
I saw a guy feeding pups with care,
And told my friend, “Yaar, ese bhi log hote hai.. it's rare!”
He was just another face,
A guy with a gentle grace.
We laughed it off and moved on from the scene,
Not knowing what that moment...

opening the gate to my dog penHypervigilant are both dogs
Fat and juicy, built like farm hogs
They are in a huge pen with plenty to do
Do they know that I, their gatekeeper, is watching them too?
I am vastly aware how fast they are
As I open the gate, not far from a car
Being knocked down by the front gate
Is pretty often now my...
