What is time
To a dog
Breathless timeless
Joy of odorous flesh
From far it stings
The encased brain
Using chemical songlines
Lifting heartbeat and melody
I dog
Don’t know when it came
If it came
I dog don’t know it
I act in response
To the lines of
Song the chemical riff
Dragging my eye to the morsel
I dog
Eat
There is no clock
No pattern that governs
I will keep leftovers
But I do not say it is for
Later
I am continuous
With my senses
I smell
I eat
I look
I do it
