the ying and yang of dogs and gods
only the one depending on the other
to be worshiped obediently

and the other never thinking of it that way
just being a dog or god doing dog or god things

with my back to the sea I imagine
how it was smaller water in bigger sand
with mountains behind it's other shoulder

and a place where it was mostly sky too
that flat place at the end of the world

that only the dogless gods can imagine

I love dogs. Just not the godless dogs. Heathens, every one of them.
Dogless gods now, that's cool.

This is way too much for my over-sleepy (yawns and thinks apologies) mind to contemplate.  I like how it reads - I just need coffee.  Did I mention I over slept (again ~ 3-20) and I have to run because work beckons and ... well, I over slept.

'They' say it's a dog eat dog world. Or is it a god eat god world? Or a dog eat god world? Or perhaps its a god eat dog world?

Anyhoo, Tall, Dark, and Mysterious (I can't tell if you're Handsome or not by your photo ~ not that it matters, your writing surely IS), this poem fits in well with your Juxtaposed Series!

Yin & Yang hugs,
EA

You always make one think...

Well done, Sir.
