dogworld



like a dog
tied to a bollard
is an island

tongue lapping
at the shores
of its world

our world
presses sky
into void

sunlight
nestled in cloud
drifts into space

& like dogs
we plant our chins
and wait

watching cars
coast by pavements
spilling clouds

into a big blue sky
breaking at the shore
of a vacuum
