GoD And DoG

Thank you, Sky, for telling me about this wonderful song:



And the song reminds me of one of my favorite poems:


FIRST HE LOOKED CONFUSED


I could not lie anymore so I started to call my dog "God."
First he looked
confused

then he started smiling, then he even
danced.

I kept at it: now he doesn’t even
bite.

I am wondering if this
might work on
people?
