15,539. CORGI

CORGI
Like the toy or the dog; not
much difference. The tag is
still hanging on the human
neck and that's the only ID
we get. If dogs could talk,
they wouldn't stoop to talk
about us. 
-
Outside the kindle-wood shed,
the new sign has new prices;
this year's different than any
other, and the dollar has soared
to new lows (?). The kid sitting
there is honing a knife, after
having sharpened a saw-blade.
-
If I had the notion, I'd ask for
his job  -  a hide-wood shed
and a Carhart jacket; Autumn 
boots and it's getting chilly 
already. The big dog is
asleep by the fire.
