(In the picture, BOLINHA, one of the over 100 dogs living at the PARQUE DA TERRA NOVA - "NEW EARTH PARK" - refuge, in Northern Portugal. Most of the dogs rescued by P.T.N. have disabilities, chronic health problems, have been victims of severe abuse or cruelty, or are unwanted seniors)


Poem Artwork

"Caninely and Humanly are just adverbs... and as such, they never modify a noun: BEING."

I wish I could sow, in your consciousness, even the tiniest of grains of the perception of what the look in the eyes of a dog conveys. Then, and there, from the natural essence that you, and him or her, and I share – the essence of the Living Being – would sprout, then blossom, fertile, expanded to the infinite, the awareness, free of weeds of domination or of reason, of the Sentient Being – be it, in substance, human... or dog.”
