Bad Dog
by Stephen Sanow
Yo gurl ;)
Shut Up
Come on gurl - don’t be like that
I don’t want to talk to you, OK?
Your disgusting
I said I was sorry
I’m making the saddest puppy face right now
It’s not going to work this time
I love you
So I guess going around town and humping whatever you want is love??
Look you know me
When I see something, I go after it. It’s in my DNA.
I’m not as smart as you
At least you got that right
Look that Chihuahua meant nothing to me.
It was just physical.
Your the one I want to be with all the time.
Let me take you out to dinner tonight?
I’ll get you a nice salmon fillet
Pretty please :’(
I’m sorry, but no
You Dogs are all the same
You all think you can do whatever you want...
...then put your tail between your legs and whimper until your forgiven.
But I’m not falling for that anymore
I’m classy Cat, I’m not something u pick up in the alley.
I’ll be different this time. I promise
Thats what you said the last time.
I know I have 9 lives, but I don’t make the same mistake twice
I’m training myself to get better
And Dogs take longer to train
You know how long it took me to use the bathroom properly?
Ugh gross
That’s not the point.
What I’m trying to say is that I’m a slow learner, but I do learn.
I even wrote you a poem
You are my favorite Cat.
I love you more than a chew toy or an ol’ hat.
Sometimes I wish we could fly away together like bats.
I don’t think your fat.
Lets sit down together and chat.
So we can go back to being Dog & Cat.
That had to be one of the worst poems ever.
What about it’s “the thought that counts?”
Look I’m trying as hard as I can.
Please give me one more chance :’(
I’m sorry, but it’s too late.
The truth is…
I met someone
Another Dog?
No.
Don’t tell me you fell for a bird?
No
It’s a fish actually
WHAT!!??
I thought u ate fish
I do.
But as it was flopping on the floor, gasping for air, we locked eyes.
And I knew it was something special
I picked it up and put it back in it’s tank, and we ended up grabbing coffee
We just clicked
And we sorta been seeing each other ever since
When did this happen?
Like two weeks ago
So u been getting with a fish for TWO WEEKS?
No- nothing like that. It’s just been friendly.
But after spending time with him...
I realized that this is the type of animal I need in my life.
Someone who listens and doesn't get distracted all the time.
And there’s a spark between us.
I just haven’t acted on it because of you
Why didn’t tell me?
I didn’t think you would care
You were too busy chasing stuff - balls, bones, young sexy squirrels
You’re the only thing I want to chase now
Sorry, but u had your chance
Come on!? I’m so much better than a fish
Your not. He pays attention to me
Yeah becuz he thinks your gunna kill him
I told u. This fish is different.
And besides he’s is always there for me
Because it’s trapped in it’s tank
He’s still there more for me than u were
I bet he’s boring
At least we knew how to have fun
Yeah, but I was 3 then and everything is fun when your 3
But I’m 4 now
I have to start thinking about the future
I have to start settling down
I can change!
I promise I won’t bark at you anymore and wake u up from ur naps
I promise I won’t sniff other Dogs butts
The good news is, u can sniff any butt you want now
So thats it? We’re done?
Yes.
There’s nothing I can do?
I’m sorry, but no.
It was fun while it lasted.
Yes it was
If I get myself together, Can I holla at u in the future?
Maybe… But give it time. I just need some space for a while
I’m sorry Kitty.
I promise I wont hurt anyone again.
I’m gonna be there others and not run off any chance I get.
I’m gonna focus on whats important to me.
I’m gonna be a good dog. You’ll see.
Good boy.
