if I had a dog in the kitchen

sleeping on a pillow

and every time I came in

to open the fridge for another beer

while I scratched her on the belly

and patted her on the head

she would probably think I was strange and would want a divorce

for smoking weed all night

and playing loud music

and laughing

and crying

and talking to myself

while I shouted at the walls

nobody is listening and nobody cares

but she's a dog, not a human

and when I pet her little head

she licks my face
