game over

i see the weary
look
in my dog's eyes
when i ask him to roll
over,
or beg, or heel.
he's heard enough
of my 
commands.
he shakes his head
no,
i'm not doing that anymore,
you're making
a monkey out
of me,
and i'm not going
for a walk while
it's raining outside.
just let me sleep, okay.
i'll hold it.
