the guard dog



The black dog runs
Around the neighbourhood
Sniffing his way here and there
Waxing his nose on pillars and walls

The guard dog in the neighbourhood
Self appointed to chase away other dogs
He wants to be the sole guardian
No outside dogs to intrude his space

The dog shit on the back lane
The marks of other dogs as well
Leaving stench for a while
Back lane cooking some will do

The pigeons on the rooftops
Clustered around smelling the food
The black dog doesn't bother them
As he runs along minding his own business
