Faithful friend
to my boy
There is Water on the floor, and a hole in your shoe
there’s fur on the sofa, and eyes watching you.
there’s drool on your work clothes, in the hall a funny smell
there’s crap on the carpet, not again, bloody hell.
on the carpet is muddy prints, from the garden in the dark
the people disgusted at your language, when your cursing in the park
your pocket is full of biscuits, that go soggy in the wash
and the smell of cow crap on the new collar that you just bought for wearing for posh.
foil found in the garden, leads to roast chicken missing off the side
leads to someone hiding in their bed, their stomach full and wide
at a guests house is so exciting. the ornaments get swept off the table
their garden is perfect to explore in, and dig up a hidden cable
that dog needs putting under control, tie it up, put on its lead
seconds later the sofa across the room is dripping, the dog has weed
the lead is chewed in half, people laugh and think its cute
the dog is down the garden, up its arse is a print of my boot
the dog has most of the duvet, snoring as the day is at its end
with those floppy ears and big black nose what a angel, my faithful friend
