Whether remaking the bed at 2am or faking concern
that it isn’t as big a deal as it should seem, there’s a
wit of intrigue still lurking. Bit like politely eating the
dubious offering hoping good manners pay rewards
disproportionate to discomfort imagined and finding
a vague pleasure, one you aren’t shaming, & you’re
cleft where you’d normally be standing free - what’s
exactly going on then you may well ask, ill at ease
the dog’s not our duty of care, not in a sense we’d
necessarily find offensive or let moral umbrage out
of a can of worms; there’s no guarantee he sees a
case for concern, he’s free to come and go, and to
wound hearts of his own culpable naivety

The young pig-hunting dog who decided he had found a home here
managed to make a mockery of everyone's concerns. He has since
been relocated and hopefully will settle down - he is a heartbreaker
of magnificent proportions
