Give me that I said, 'it will make you sick', <br />she snarled and showed me her bloody teeth. <br />'Please, it is not you that has to clean up s ', <br />a canine eye glared and she growled another bit. <br /> <br />Give me that, 'I don't want to have to hurt you', <br />in defiance she took one more ghastly, giant gnaw. <br />I grabbed it quick knowing the cruel consequences, <br />a deep infected bite bleeding, as she happily ran away.<br /><br />Alexander Downie<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-dog-with-an-old-bone/
