Dog Star
Frequent & repeated lines of questioning,
not limited to frequent and repeated running,
O,
your honor,
how wyd one do in the dog days should so futile an expense be paid.
Often,
though not often enough
(and
entirely too often,)
it seems
to be
repeated
to be
repeated the sayings of the elderly,
but I say,
among others,
RUN!
collapse into the whole of everything else.
Run not in the ablative sense,
but inwardly.
The Dog Days are days in the truest meaning,
Don't Hold Me To That!!!
for this will pass,
as will those and that.
That rustling will never cease
and should it,
I fear the worst.
From this cries a home
A HOME!
for want of all.
Take this, Take me, whole, unbroken, beyond dog days and frequent and repeated sayings & questions. Take me home.
