poems about dogs


Dog’s life for Me


It’s a Dog’s Life For Me
I’d like to come back
In my next life
As a dog

A dog’s only worry
is its next meal
All it has to do
Is wag its tail

And look cute
And someone will feed him
And give him water
A dog has no worries

No cares at all
And when a Dog
Wants some loving

All it needs to do
Is find the nearest
Female dog

And enjoy himself
Without guilt
And without worrying

About getting married
Or having an affair
Just simple Sex
in the doggie way

Nothing simpler than that
Yes,
A dog’s life
Is the life for me
###
the dogs of war are howling

The Dogs of War
Have been set free
Of their cage
and are out
Howling at the moon

The Dogs of War
Have been set free
to wreck what havoc
Might be

Yes, the Dogs of War
The Hell Hounds
Have bound out of their cages

Sniffed about
And smiled
At the destruction, they saw

They knew soon
They would be in their element
As the world descends into chaos

The world saw
The face of pure evil
that fine September morning

A morning like any other morning
Until a fateful moment

When two planes
came out of the sky
And destroyed
The center of world capitalism
In an act of horrific violence
An act of such evil
That is beyond the comprehension
Of mere mortal man

Surely there must
Be a reason why
That particular day
The world almost ended

The Dogs of war
Are at foot
The chaos is upon us

The evil grows and grows
And dark noises are heard
Here and there

A Jehad had been launched
By the holly lunatics
Misguided warriors

Who thought they were fighting
The great Satan
Not knowing that their hearts and minds
Were corrupted and controlled
By Satan himself

Somewhere in the world
that morning
A door opened
and a man walked through

Flipped a switch
And let loose
The chaos that ensured

The world watched with horror
And fascination
As in real time

A dynamite action movie unfolded
Only this was no movie, punk
It was the real deal, Mr. McNeal
Live and uncensored

With the music of the devil
Playing at full volume
As people died

Burning alive
And the dogs of war
Smiled

They knew soon
They would be in their element
As America
The Sleeping Giant
Again woke up

And realized
that they would have to fight back
Against their enemies

The war machine
Came to life
The plans came out of the books

The military might was unleashed
And the Dogs of war
Smiled and howled at the moon

The machinery of war
Once unleashed
Can’t easily be stopped

There is a certain cruel logic
That demands that the war go on
And people die

And people suffer
And the stock market crashes
And the evil that men do
Goes on and on and on
###
The Cosmic Dog from Goa

My final time with God
Happened a year latter
I was staying down in Goa
With my wife
Enjoying being with her
After our reconciliation
We stayed at the Taj Mahal Goa

Living like Kings and Queen
Just for a few day
High up on a hill

Overlooking the beach
Every morning
I went down to the beach

And did yoga by the water
While contemplating life
And every morning
I saw the same dog

Not just a dog
But a cosmic dog
Filled with the divine spark of God

And the dog recognized me
And spoke to me
and I knew
That God was present once more

In the face
of the that cosmic dog
Kindred spirit
perhaps to the cosmic cat
that had saved my soul
In Berkeley so long ago

I told the dog everything
And he just looked at me

With those soulful eyes of his
and I knew he knew that I knew
that he was possessed by God

God had sent him to me
To make sure
that I was on the right path

That the reconciliation
that God had promoted
Was on the track

that I was back with my wife
And that everything
was the way it should be

Again I asked God the cosmic dog
whether he was Jesus or Allah
Or Brahmin or Ganesh or Buddha

God the cosmic dog
just stared at me
I finally asked him directly

Say if you are God
the God of Jesus
Bark once

The Dog looked at me
and barked

I said well if you are Allah
bark twice

The dog barked twice

Well are you buddha then bark three times if yes

The god dog barked three times

Hmm well are you Satan
The dog growled at me
And I knew I had gone too far

Finally, I was at peace
and for the next three days
The God Dog
was my constant companion
And I knew God
Was there in my life

Agnostic Dyslectic Wonders if There is a Dog

an agnostic dyslectic
stays up all night
wondering if there is a dog

the Buddhists wonder
about the Buddha nature of the dog
the evangelicals are sure
that there is a dog
and you must follow their dog
or go to hell

for following another’s dog
the Muslims agree
there is only one dog
and the dogs

smile at the foolishness
of the human race
of course, there is a dog

and they are the master race
as they growl at their owners
who bow down
and clean up their mess
###

I Want a Dog’s Life

I want a dog’s life
That’s what I want in my next life
All a Dog needs to do
is be cute
And his master
will feed him
It is a dog’s life for me

###
The Messenger Dog of God


One day
While studying in Rome
As a priest
I notice a small white dog
Staring at me

He glances at me
Indicating that I am to follow him

I get up
And follow this strange dog

He leads me deep
Inside the hidden depths
Of the Vatican

Finally stopping by a door
I open the door

And see St Peter there
He smiles
Dismisses the dog

Who moves on down the hall

Finished with his cosmic duty
As the secret messenger of God
All in a day’s work

I ask, “ why am I here?”
St Peter says
“Why are any of us here?
It is time for you to go.”

“ But, I don’t want to go
Don’t want to leave this mortal plane”

St Peter smiles
Says” it is time to go.”

I wake up
Back in my bed
With my wife
And realize it was all a dream

It was not yet time
To go
But I am afraid
I will find the messenger dog
Outside my door
Any day now


The grim reaper waits
And it will soon be my time
