Hey qd-
Thanks for taking a look and leaving some comments.
There is no intended meter, as this one just popped out... like a journal entry (with line breaks). The journal entry observation is quite right.
Ah yes, the dog as an atomic weapon. Sometimes it feels that way. Certainly, dog as biological weapon.
I write a few poems like this every now and again, which makes them ripe for slicing and dicing. But that's exactly what I'm looking for. This one, being brand new, may require a lot 'o cutting.
Or maybe I just run with it as a "shaggy dog" story (bad pun, sorry). But that would meaning adding, instead of subtracting...
Thanks again!
