LOAFING AGAIN AT THE CORNER CAFE
 
 

a golden lab puppy cries on the porch

he Is lonesome for his beautiful mistress

that makes two of us

i can't think here anyway

with you know who always yibbling so loud

and go out to cheer up this tethered dog

it's a good day's work

reducing the pains of a morning by half
