Dear Steph, I wrote these in contemplation of my neighbor Guido’s horrible little yapping inbred cocker spaniel. perhaps they are worthy of publication
also? hehehe. more to come. (the dog continues to bark)

#1
Your dog’s too loud, and it must go.
I’m sorry but this is just so.
I thought that you just ought to know
Your dog’s too loud and it must go.
#2
the yipping dog will die today
Its barking hurts my head
I’ll smash its brains in the drive way
That dog ought to be dead.
#3
Some say a dog is man’s best friend
But does that rule pertain
to dogs that yelp unceasingly
and drive me quite insane?
#4 (here’s the haiku)
Shrill noise ends my sleep
Guido’s dog needs sedation
Where is my shovel
#5
there once was a dog that I hated
Its yip-yip-yip never abated
I wanted to kill it
or somehow to still it
and knew why the gun was created.
