A Dog's Life
Man and dog in drought-stricken scene


A Dog’s Life

Oh, I’ll stick with you,
though the signs are not auspicious;
it hasn’t rained in ages
and sitting there won’t change that.
A bad place to settle,
as even a cat would know,
but I signed on the line
and dogs don’t break the contract.
