hey stray dog: nobody's
going to let you in.
though human, you
own a sad canine karma.
hope will only mock you
later. turn back to streets,
lots, woods, or a one-room
apartment. enjoy pungence
and meals for one. watch
the moon get stuck
in leafless branches. dream
you're captain of a silver
boat upon a golden sea,
a faithful friend at your side.
