This is a stained-glass homage
to my dog: Marley.
Her breed is a mixture
of English blood sausages.
Her temperment resembles
that of cheap luggage.
She will spend hours
licking her right dewclaw.
She will spend more hours
licking our patchwork bedding.
She needs to sit down
using seven distinct steps.
She sneezes in reverse
whenever the Queen
appears on CBC Newsworld.
Also, she likes to bark
at the doorbells
that lives in our walls,
& lick our novelty doormat
into submission.
