Six Damn Dogs

I must be nuts and crazy to allow them to keep this many at once. In my defense, I did tell my oldest she had to find a home for the one she just brought in. This has just gotten ridiculous.

Oh I am driven nuts

Completely fruity

Somebody had to add

Someone had to bring home

One more damn dog to the mix

Now we have six

Six damn dogs.

All of a sudden,

I can go nowhere

Without a dog present

If I go to pee,

There they are with me

It is like having a set of

Sextuplet toddlers

Late night snack,

Turn around

And trip over a dog

Hoping for his share

Six damn dogs,

And not one

Will sleep outside

Oh, no

They sit and scratch

And bark and howl

Until someone

Anyone

Gets up

And lets them in

Six damn dogs

The only good thing

Is they are all housebroken

If one bark

They all bark

All want on the couch

Five want to sneak into beds

Play with me

No, me

They drive me crazy

Six damn dogs
