The Miniature Schnauzer Muzzling Humans

muzzled humans

by the quaint marina
the canada geese
tuck their heads
into their chests-
the water shimmers.

half-ivory moon cojoins
young woman striding
miniature schnauzer
on a leash.

bushy beard, pattering feet,
I’m about to smile
but it ferociously yaps
in a high-pitched voice

breaking the moment.

she looks at me contrite.
cheeky dog
expressing itself.

left us humans muzzled.

Short Poem: Which came first, man or monkey?
