crowdog
crowdog takes me for night walks
down by the creek
mostly the trail is barely lit by moonlight
or maybe barely by starlight
I read the trail with my feet he stays close
sweeping the path behind me or darting past
huff and tail slap
domesticated jaws
cultivated wild thing
guardian property
crowdog bit somebody
so he's dangerous
at least to someone
at least that once
bit badly enough
to be considered unfit to live
by those that consider
who may not
most likely did not
consider just that
and only that
dogs do bite
I take him to live in the woods
to be neighborless friends
no danger to me
I know that crowdog does bite
down by the creek
mostly the trail is barely lit by moonlight
or maybe barely by starlight
I read the trail with my feet he stays close
sweeping the path behind me or darting past
huff and tail slap
domesticated jaws
cultivated wild thing
guardian property
crowdog bit somebody
so he's dangerous
at least to someone
at least that once
bit badly enough
to be considered unfit to live
by those that consider

to be neighborless friends
