The pandemic has left many people spending a lot more time at home. Dogs may have originally been excited about this turn of events – but now some may be ready for a break from their humans. That was the inspiration for this Typewriter Rodeo poem.
Dogs And Quarantine
this is approximately
the 49th walk
I’ve been on today.
that pole
has been sniffed,
that yard has been claimed,
that car has been dodged
and now
I just would like to
lay down
on this cold floor
and not move for a minute
or maybe a day
my nap time has been breached
for so so long
I don’t even know anymore
I’ve always loved walks,
I have
but this has
much like me
gone way too far
