when dogs run free

when the dog
runs
out the front door,
she looks back
with wild eyes.
free at last.
her tongue out,
her tail
wagging. her fur
a blonde brush
in the wind.
she hops the fence,
and gallops
across the street,
disappears into the woods.
she might
come back.
but the odds are
against
that.
