Mark Becker,
This is one of the most explicit examples of the dog-love trope.
I've been on this site a long, long time.
Forever and ever and ever
Animals Don't Love Each Other
A woman’s crying,
with a sense of shame
that’s only what’s expected.
Only humans are raped.
You don’t hear a dog complain;
a bitch in heat doesn’t lament the smell of her ass,
or bring charges against the mutt that mounts her.
It’s not that animals have no sense;
they’re nothing but sense.
They don’t miss anything for long,
or run in front of cars because they’re stupid.
A beast has somewhere to go,
and other kinds of places it just needs to be.
People put up chains and fences because they love so intensely;
and a lone man dead by the side of the road is no tragedy but a reward.
There were two other poems, unknown and He got bit by a snake and also poisoned on this site. I don't find them, now.
Setting up the animal-sex drive, and the Cynic-dog world.
The dog/love trope.
