Typewriter Rodeo: Dog Parks

Each week, the Standard reaches out to Austin’s Typewriter Rodeo for a custom poem on Texas topics.

Going to a dog park can be a singular experience for a human — let alone a dog. That was the inspiration for this Typewriter Rodeo poem.

Dog Parks

You’re my friend

and you

and you

and you, too

ooh

and that guy

and that lady

and that pup

and you

and YOU

lets run and play and

ow

bite less hard

and run

and play

and 

HA

I bite YOU hard

cause you’re my friend

and you

and YOU

and the humans are okay, too

as long as they keep

throwing 

that 

ball
