Short Leash

Tuesday 11th January 2022 12:42 pm

I have a short leash

it only goes so far

I cannot get out of my leash

or gnaw it off

the leash is too strong

the government says

the leash is mandated

and if it snaps

then I must get another leash

and put it on myself

and keep doing it until

I finally give up and give in

so I am basically

chaining myself

what kind of a dog

would put up with this?

they must think

I'm a very stupid dog.

I think you're a very clever dog, dk 😀
This has extended metaphor written all over it! (to me anyway!)
