MAN'S BEST FRIEND

Marry and Adam
long term friends
when married
ten years ago

They had no children
none in the basket
none in the crib
Marry loved Adam

A modern couple
both employed
responsible positions
money no object

Each their own
relatively new vehicle
a mortgaged home
a thirty year loan

They share friends
who considered them
an ideal couple
best of companions

well until one day
Marry home early
and unexpectedly
found Adam and Daisy

Daisy the family
female pet pit bull
involved with Adam
in the back yard

She had entered
their lovely home
seeking her loving
faithful spouse

She by chance
happened to glance out
the kitchen window
into the backyard

Behold there she beheld
her loving husband
with his trousers
below half mast

Enthusiastically
two blocking
the affectionate Daisy
their pet pit bull

But husband
and the pit bull
oblivious to the world
and to Marry

Marry horrified
by what she spied
angered as hell
pulled out her cell

Photographed
the lurid activity
as she placed
a local call

The police cam
finding Adam
still actively
engaged with Daisy

So the police
led Adam away
to the confines
of a comfortable cell

Daisy was adopted
by a kindly family
who promised
not to abuse her

Adam and Marry
have parted ways
now members
of a local legend

but a true story

SYMBIONTS

Few of us
will ever be
astronauts
however
all of us
are symbionts

So let us toast
our selves as host
as a specie
that shares
within us
other specie
in all of us
on us and in us
