#47 Later and Dog Speaks
by Marilyn McIntyre#47 laterI'm still that
shy little big girl
able body
frowning face
a voice that
dooms
to speak
golden-haired
with a mean
left
not much has changed
i still put my trousers on
one leg at a time
but backwards.
Dog Speaks
a dog
rushed up to me in the park today
he spoke
as he up, and straddled my chest
squeezing my heart
"Speak your truth
With good intention.
That,,, is All..."
I strode
on with heart held high
head beating fast
and stepped full
on, into,
His message.
