Folie à Chien

Updated: Dec 24, 2024

I envy the dogs

and their domesticated life

for thousands of years.

I envy their pampered life,

cursed to be loved forever.

This love is not for me,

I am too wild

for the foot of your bed.

I will fight and bite,

steal, and whine.


Who would want a nuisance like that?
