A Dog's Life

Lead it outside in the sun

When I called it would not come

Paint its face up nicely

Tie its hair up in a curl

Paint its lipstick bright red

Wipe the drool up gently

Not like all the others

Just one of life's winners

Made of something better

So throw the ball up into space

Hold the phone up to its face

Lead it outside in the rain

Tie it up and pat its head

Never speak of it again
