In the Neighborhood

Nathan barks across the way
if to say,"hey!"
Please stay
but no, Matt walks on
for bigger and more human things
but what does this evening bring
for poor Nathan

will he destroy a throw pillow
or drool on the walls
scratch at the window or
tear through the halls
running this way
and that
till he slides to a halt
knocking over the trashcan
thinking,"oh no! my fault!"

and barks and barks he does
as he sees me across the way
as if to say,"hey! please play!
I know you're not Matt
but I'm okay with that.
No! hurry hurry hurry
don't delay
lets hang out today!"

But type on I do
and I'm sorry too
because Nathan is quite the cute puppy
but I don't have a key or a way
to let him out today
so for now
apart we'll have to stay!
