Two dogs emerged in the woods <br />And sorry I could not run from both <br />And remain safe, seconds I stood <br />And looked one as much as I could <br />Till where its canines had 2 inches grown <br /> <br />Looked the other, I was dead ’twas crystal clear, <br />For it had perhaps the sharper cane, <br />Because it was bigger and wanted prey; <br />Though as for the standing there <br />Had made them look about the same. <br /> <br />And both growling that morning I feigned <br />Their canes ready to get a piece of me. <br />Oh, I Usain Bolted out of their way! <br />Not knowing where the road led <br />I doubted if they would ever get me. <br /> <br />I shall be telling this with a sigh <br />Somewhere ages and ages hence: <br />Two dogs emerged in the woods, and I - <br />I took the Usain Bolt Challenge, <br />And that's the reason I’m still a'ight. <br /> <br /><br />Kimani wa Mumbi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-bite-not-taken/
