Kojo

A Poem by Mario Vitale
"

A dog from Satan

"

Kojo

 

piercing eyes looking back at me

long hanging viscous fangs that bite in my frequency

nestled in the corner the Ovation guitar

she was a timid creature when you get to know her

explosive to others who have no conscience intact

her breed to pit bul mixed with Dalmatian

once she bits you she locks in will not let go

that's is what happened years ago when a bum made his home on our porch

in the morning there was chard human remains along the tapestry

tried to tame her but to no avail she was the daughter of hell

fed her from the big bag from Costco

put a little can to mix her favorite treat with she was always nice to us so why the fuss

after the incident we made an attempt to put her down but we kept things quiet

as a coincidence another passing bum made there home but I awaoke them before the great alarm...

she used to bark at the moon

grew close to me in her last days

perplexed but happy that we met

so sorry now that she is gone

there is a reason for everything
