Not so cute stray dog in Thailand by phil uk net

Doberman in a Rolls Royce

While,
a handsome
doberman
dressed in
a luxury
tuxedo got
off from
a lavish
Rolls Royce
swished
and whistled
past me,
and did
a mushy
play with
a drama-queen,
moving
to the Kyle's
hip-hop style,
by the river
of Nile..

Then a Dalmatian
in dark
goggles
riding
an exotic
Jaguar
almost killed
me with his
tremendously
Outrageous
sporty
moves,
and left
me with
despondent
grooves,

Whilst
I watched
In total envy,
mind blurred
with gravy,
weighing so
heavy,
as a cuddly
Chihuahua
wrapped in
Rosy feathers
Got out From
A Mercedes Benz
And rushed
To Pose for
the vanity Fair,
and then
went out
on a sexy
date with
Hilton sisters,…

As I
dreamt
and stood
in dismay,
envying their
luxury ways
flabbergasted
and stunned
when he
came…
Like a panther
he gazed,
like a spider
he weaved
and caught
me off-guard,
strangled me
and took me
to the
hangman’s bay.

Wow, this one really got to me! How well you have set the scene and viscerally presented the truth. Excellently done.

you have the wit of a comedian, talent of a writer, combine them together and you are fantastic poet.

You have excellently contrasted the two situations -the class struggle and the ever winning dominant class- and opened our eyes to the unfair reality in which the winners are alienated, to get blind in their own fantasies

I loved these dancing emotions swaying with the rythms, rhymes. and sounds. I must confess, I found it amusing to picture and had some internal laughs. The ending is superb.

A rappers' and a dog-lovers' delight! I wonder what you'd have done with my elegant, though vertically challenged dachshund, Ella? Perhaps she could alight with a flea in her ear from a purple vintage goggomobile - or was that a doggamobile? Another side-splitting read! Love it! Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Such show and tell wisdom woven through your ingenuously created words and your imagination as always makes me smile. The trouble is now you are strangled and hung, how could we ever do without you here with us freaks. It's all right, I will find a magician to bring you back to life, if you promise not to die again!!!

Very insightful write Shan - - and a rant against what money can buy is needed with so much wastefully spread around the globe. Good illustrations too.
