Extreme Friendliness Disorder
The dog pees in big puddles
in the hall, down from our room
seeming to punctuate, to add something,
but I don't want to complain-
dog pee is just, just to get me
sitting in the vet's waiting room,
where I read "Bark" magazine.
As if a human magazine, as if The New Yorker
should be called "Speech Magazine."
Ha! Ha! Bark! Bark!
And it seems the domestic dog originated
in the Middle East, not Asia,
but the real bark of the study was that
Williams Syndrome, which brings the curse of
Extreme Friendliness Disorder
is traceable, can be seen in dog genes;
Bark magazine does not deal, I think, in irony
in sadness.
Domestication a syndrome
Civilization a disorder
Friendliness a...oh God no...
My tail is wagging
