a dog lifts his leg on the drought
that marks a known world edge
then another's along to sniff
and a third dog gets out – a party!
you'd think they'd arrived
but there's more!
this is how the colour of beer
was first poured
out beyond any thus-far whiff
has any dog come so far?
has any dog been here before?
but there's further!
under hat and out from under
their humans are hundreds of dog years old
they pile back in
and the track runs on
paws won't even touch it
dogs have been everywhere
at the end of the track
there'll be these
there'll be more
