What can I say? The surroundings inspired me.

Written at the Lucky Labrador on SE Hawthorne, after work on the afternoon of Tuesday, July 14th, while I digest tortilla soup, bread and a pint of cider:



De-Dog'd
Good God
My life does not have dogs
I'm fogged
In bogs
Without the help of dogs
Can't clog
Or tog-
-gle when I don't see dogs
I'd slog
'Mongst hogs
To spend more time with dogs
Or flog
Some Yog-
-Suthoth what don't like dogs.
So dogs?
Here's grog!
Raised to your awesome pogs.



(...Dogs collect pogs. Dogs are a little behind the times.)
