1. sopwith camel

    my dog is at it
    again
    I hear my neighbors
    slam their windows
    up

    “shut that fucking dog up,”
    they yell
    every night it’s the
    same

    “shut that fucking dog up.”

    it’s not his fault that he wants to dance
    on top of a
    piano

    it’s not his fault that he pretends his doghouse
    is a sopwith
    camel

    it’s not his fault that he spends many nights
    pounding mad
    on the typer

    “shut that fucking dog up,”
    they holler

    it’s not his fault
    he’s just a dog
