The Poetry Pup

I stand guard
To protect my mum
From bicycles, baby carriages, scooters
And my number one enemy
The 39 bus

Not me reading this on my way to my road test

black dog sitting in the sunlight on top of a pillow

The secret to my shine
Is that I pay
not a single bill
My mum works for me
My only job is to chill

Photo of large brown dog with lots of folds and wrinkles. Haiku: They say worrying causes wrinkles. I say just bite ’em. No worries!

I know it's your spot
I was just keeping it warm
I like that it smells like you:
your clothes,
your perfume,
and your farts.

Penny and the jets

Dog's face with eyes closed, lying down on top of blanket with Harvard logo

Every day mama leaves me alone
For a couple hours
And for what,
Some little diploma?

It's fine
I'll wait alone
And fall into my
daily doggy depression coma

Dog lying down blanket and front paws stretched out

I like to be comfy
In strange positions
To be as cute as possible
Is my only mission

Dog lying down on top of a skirt

Mommy can take off her fur!
She has a dresser full of different ones
And every day she wears the one she prefers.

They are always a comfy place
For me to lay my face
Whether she wears them on her body
Or she just lays them out to put on later
when she finishes her studies.

Sometimes the temperature is right
Sometimes it is wrong
Sometimes it is a combination

So I leave my foot out
While I cover the rest of myself up

Dog staring out a window in front of some plants

Protecting my family
I'm a one pup neighborhood watch
If anyone tries to mess with us
I will get their ass!

LOL mum is breaking in new cowboy boots 😂😂

Dog standing in front of TV

What does it mean when you say
"Move aside! I'm watching TV"
What could possibly be more important
Than paying attention to me?

What's that on the table?
Looks interesting
I'm just curious
Not begging

But

It would be such a shame
If you accidentally
dropped
Just one little piece

I know I have kibble
But come on,
All I ask for:
Just one little nibble

Dog wearing headband, sitting on couch in front of plant

Sometimes I'm a puppy
Sometimes I'm a movie star
Everyday I am a diva
That's the only life I've known thus far

I can't believe it
That isn't a new dog bed
It is a SUITCASE
Full of your stuff
Are you leaving me?
Do you not love me enough?

Dog lying down in sunshine on couch

Springtime sunshine
All for me!
What will I do today?
Bask and rest
And lick my bowl clean

So this is like in Arrested Development when George Michael and Maeby were throwing away a banana for every dollar stolen, except this time they're also throwing away the dollar they stole.

Just kidding, this is more like when they set fire to the banana stand.

Wearing plaid
Comfy in his crate
That Mr. Jones is a cutie
there is no debate!

I spent the weekend exactly like this
But also that's how I spend every single day of my life
It is pure bliss

Dog resting on a person's forearm as they use a computer mouse

If I make it so that you can't move about

The fake plastic mouse that stresses you out

Maybe you can turn your attention to me

And give me a boop
On my own little snout

It would also maximize how effective they are at cleaning the blood stains

Happy or sad
Or tall or skinny
Chihuahua or beagle or pitbull or weenie
I know exactly who was here before me
By taking a sniff of this puddle of pee pee

Now the story of a wealthy family who lost everything, and the two sons that should never sleep in the same room together.

He looks like he would make an amazing matcha latte

This sounds like the name of Panic at the disco but when he's all grown up

Breakfast for dinner is overrated. But dinner for breakfast? Elite.

Here I am!! My name is Penelope

Me and my mummy
We are art!
