Mark, Who is Fixing Our Porch
My son has the kindest dog
I don’t even want to tell you
his dog is a pit bull because
you’ll think otherwise but
for the sake of honesty
you are a new employer
said Mark who is 46
I have to tell you
His dog is a pit bull.
We had to put him down this morning.
The dog said Mark who called
on the phone because
he needs a check
to buy the wood
to fix our porch
The dog he repeated
in case I forgot
his subject matter
the dog is mentally
challenged. You don’t say
retarded any more.
He’s sick said Mark.
Very sick.
I’m calling he said
to tell you I’ll be by
twenty minutes from now
for eighty dollars.
