The mutt
Little droplets of spittle
on the floors, riddled.
Walls barking a storm while
Vehement strides on the lime laminate tile,
chain dragging the mutt
by her hinds.
Struggling out of her collar
the old tirant lets out a hollar.
Yanked up by her scruff
Vehement heaves her into
a cage.
The mutt scrambling to her legs
watches ruffled pants
stride away,
Sending down shockwaves
of whimpers
that could electrify skin.
Whisking under swaths of yellow light
truck putters on through the night.
his stubble illuminated, his face obscured;
Vehement's anger cured.
“Come tomorra, that child's gonna learn a lesson,
a lesson, she won't ferget.”
