i ain't that lonely yet

i miss my dog.

a little.

not a lot. but he did have a way
of vacuuming
the rug,

the floor, the bed
from crumbs, and chips,
what nots.

the walking was tedious.
picking up

after him.
it was like walking a trout
on dry

land.
the barking.
the fleas.

sometimes he'd fetch
the ball,
and other times he wouldn't.

the vet bills were
killing me, as i took him
time and time again
to the doggie mayo clinic

to have his stomach
pumped from gnawing
on dead

birds, or things.

i miss my dog.
but i ain't that lonely yet.
