Death to dog art
Art about dogs is stupid
but this poem is for Pablo-
a dog who thought he was human.
He hated other dogs
But loved every person
and his best friend was a cat
named Barley.
He ate his food, hardly
He preferred it less dog-y.
He slept in our beds
And sometimes laid his head
on our pillows.
He’d pose for a photo
and then wait for the praise.
He knew that we knew
He was different.
