The stars might look like
milky bones from afar.
Or glowing tennis *****
still clutched in owner's hands
while the dumb dog
chases something hidden.
Did he stick his head
out the window of the spaceship?
Tongue out,
howling.
Did he know the hole
he had dug
was his own grave?
I hate when owners
pretend to throw a ball,
only to hide it behind their backs.
The dog trusts you.
The dog loves you.
The dog loves life.
The dog doesn't want to die.
The dog doesn't deserve to die.
The dog doesn't care about exploring space,
it just wants to find that ******* ball.
