nighttime human
Tony trots down to Buster's door
to work the latch in reverse
only the new girl three kennels down one across
makes any kind of sound
a startled shout
as Buster plunges into the hall
everyone else is quiet as he follows
and watches Tony teethe open the yard door
the nighttime human
is on the other side of the fence
delivering fragrant sounds
cooing unintelligible missives
to it's bags and bottles
each dog pads to the corner
to accept food offerings
and clumsy finger scratches
through the chainlink
to work the latch in reverse
only the new girl three kennels down one across
makes any kind of sound
a startled shout
as Buster plunges into the hall
everyone else is quiet as he follows
and watches Tony teethe open the yard door
the nighttime human
is on the other side of the fence
delivering fragrant sounds
cooing unintelligible missives
to it's bags and bottles
each dog pads to the corner
to accept food offerings
and clumsy finger scratches
through the chainlink
