I feel sorry for humans;
they really can’t smell
with their noses
so far from the ground.
And that means they never
know what’s going on
or which dogs and cats
came around.
I could tell them,
I guess
when the most recent squirrel
was trespassing right in my yard,
But it’s such a big bother
teaching them how to speak.
Even listening, for them
is quite hard.
They don’t seem to care
about stuff they don’t know;
I guess nothing but fluff’s
in their head...
Sometimes I whisper
in their ears late at night
but they seem to forget
what I said.
