Pepper

Silent Slumber slipping
Neither here nor there
Judge's gavel comes down
To the dog pound I serve
My canine friends I'm willing to serve
Cause my humanity runs low
Accusations, wacky, unfounded
Bleed me dry and morally bankrupt
Cleaning crap to clean my record clear
Emaciated mut, damn it all
For all to see, my silent screams
No pedigree on paper seen
But given name "Pepper"
2 lost souls were seen
To each, now a given role to play
"Dog walker" and "Pepper" smart
In quiet patience we await
The playful moments on the sly,
When I thought no one saw,
The dog-run romps;
But the Walls HAVE EYES
All seen, and recorded
In mental minutia,
Your COMPANION worth was seen,
My animal compassion seen
A life, abandoned,worth a second chance
Temperament speaks
Tho not home with me,
Initial tests we rose above
The "dog-walker" and the mut
By my side, together tested and passed
1 smart dog & a "dog-walker"
Both, now free, to rise above adversity
And feed upon compassion freely given
Both renewed, in life anew-ed
In the land of loving confusion.
