Ten years without my dog
Mornings are the worst
no one demands my time
I feel not needed and
in a way loveless
She did love me even after
being fed
she liked to sit on my lap when
I was watching TV and she
was an expert in the silent fart.
It began with her
sleeping
at the end of the bed,
But it ended with her hogging
my pillow and duvet
and when old, woke me seven
times a night for a pee.
No consideration,
she didn’t deserve my love
But the last thing she did before
she died was
licking my hands.
