i smell what you're cooking

the dog,
fat on table scrapes is happy
despite
his size.
his belly full with whatever
it is
i cook.

when i'm gone he
nudges
the recipe book off
the shelf
and browses for something
new.

he tires at times of chicken,
or fish,
or stew.

when i see him with his
sombrero  on.
i see what he's up to

and stop for beans and rice
on the way home.

fajitas for two.
