When 'going to the dogs' stirs an envious watcher.
Though tagged, it's a dog's life I want a 'take' of its pomposity. Ahh...perhaps my request has tweaked your curiosity? Oh, if only to be a Westminister's privileged cur, adored and pampered and addressed as Sir. To be coddled and pedicured, dipped and clipped, and from life's full cup my gulps would be sipped. I'd end the aimless rambling, my needs would be met, being a King of the hill, my life would be set! You're asking me why my sudden change of heart? I'm just an old alley cat... who's finally gotten smart!

The Wholly Book of Genesis by Jay Dubya
