All Dogs Must Be On Leashes
******************************

Jinky and me down by the lake
enjoying the sunset
there we met a guy
sitting on the beach
hidden under a tree
listening to his IPod
reading a book about
urban anxiety
so we said hello
he didn''t want to talk to us
but we made him talk to us
..and explain the book
.. and how he lives
.. and what matters to him

it was like pulling teeth
but we got him to rub Jinky
and answer my probing questions
about existance and eternal values
seems what he regards
as an eternal value
are a short list of bands.
#1) is the 13th Floor Evevators whom
I have never heard before and known it
#2) is Frank Zappa whom I adore on many levels

so that let us be friends'
friends by unrelenting pressure
but friends none the less
Then Jinky & me
went off down the beach
so he could sniff things
and sort of swat at the waves

when we were done we walked back
there was another Chinese wedding
being photographed against the sunset
Jinky ran up to the bride
in the big white dress
and was soon tangled up
in her crinoline
I had to go over and untangle him
apologise and carry him away
nobody likes an interloper at a wedding

I put him on the little meadow above the beach
where he would be out of harms way
and then up strolled a lady with a tiny tiny dog
on a bright red lead
She said it was a Yorkshire terrier
dog weighed like seven ounces
lady tipped the scales at I bet 250 lbs

Jinky was fascinated with this tiny dog
and went right up to it
tiny dog seemed at ease
so the lady dropped the lead
to let the animals get aquainted
tiny dog tried to sniff Jinkys butt
and Jinky freaked
tiny dog ran off
and Jinky ran after him
mostly interested in the
dragging sparkly lead handle
spinning in the grass
so as the little dog ran faster
Jinky ran right after it
this greatly distressed the tiny dog
who began to zig zag in an evasive action
across the meadow
hoping to shake off the red lion
but Jinky became even more interested
in the spinning lead handle
and followed the dogs every zig and zag
poor tiny dog was about to explode in confusion
there was no way to shake off the persuing lion
so it ran back to its owner
who scooped it up
and hugged this greatly excited
quivvering little dog

and the lead handle swung free
and Jinky jumped at it
Little dog thought Jinky
was attempting to grab him
out of its owners arms
so little dog attempted to
climb to higher ground'
- the ladys ample bosum
and perhaps her head

in two seconds it became
a frightened ittle dog
climbing a mountain of woman
while Jinky swatted at the dangling lead handle

I had to rush up and grab my cat
before the little dog decided
to burrow into her ear

I guess nobody likes their butt sniffed
by a Yorkshire terrier
at least not one
wearing a sparkly collar
and matching lead
that runs zig zag
across a park meadow at sunset

nice sunset though
