Dog Haiku

Author unknown. Submitted by Sarah Thompson.

I love my master;
Thus I perfume myself with
This long-rotten squirrel.

I lie belly-up
In the sunshine, happier than
You ever will be

Today I sniffed
Many dog butts - I celebrate
By kissing your face.

I sound the alarm!
Paperboy - come to kill us all -
Look!  Look!  Look!  Look!   Look!

I sound the alarm!
Mailman Fiend - come to kill us all -
Look!  Look!  Look!  Look!  Look!

I sound the alarm!
Meter reader - come to kill all -
Look!  Look!  Look!  Look!  Look!

I sound the alarm!
Garbage man - come to kill all -
Look!  Look!  Look!  Look!  Look!

I sound the alarm!
Neighbor's cat - come to kill all!
Look!   Look!  Look!  Look!  Look!

I lift my leg and
Wiz on each bush.  Hello, Spot -
Sniff this and weep.

How do I love thee?
The ways are numberless as
My hairs on the rug.

My human is home!
I am so ecstatic I have
Made a puddle.

I hate my choke chain -
Look, world, they strangle me!  Ack
Ack Ack Ack Ack Ack!

Look in my eyes and
Deny it.  No human could
Love you as much I do.

Dig under fence - why?
Because it's there.  Because it's
There.  Because it's there.

I am your best friend,
Now, always, and especially
When you are eating.

You may call them fleas,
But they are far more - I call
Them a vocation.

My humans' mood is
Romantic - I lie near their
Feet.  I blow a big one.
