A dog's life
On the dog the blazing sun pours
but closed are all the doors
hungry and thirsty and mad in heat
the asphalt burns his feet
Isn't there a kind heart
to see and feel his pain
to play God's part
as His will ordained?
Life without a roof
His bed is the pavement
roof the firmament
famished and sick
his pillow is a brick
people pass without a stare
if you're fine all else is fair
their sight is a shame
disreputes the city's fame
Where is God?
Full is His misery's cup
all muddled up
He has no clue
why nothing went fine
with his divine design
what to do!
Is all lost?*
Two gifts you still can feel
in your mind live their trace
to use them if you truly will
love and kindness*.
