The Dog Listens---A Poem by O.L. Buzzerd

 

 

I discuss things with my dog

as we sit on the front porch

watching the vultures

makin lazy circles n the sky

the dog listens quietly

answers back with his eyes

he understands every word I say

and always goes along

the dog is always agreeable

knows me inside and out and

he don't complain about nuthin

I get a lot more out of him

than I did talkin to my ex wife

she used a lot more words

but didn't make any more sense

sometimes silence

means more than words.

 

-O.L. Buzzerd

 

* Buzzerd's wife left him but she also left the dog.

  O.L. says it's the best thing she ever did.
