expectation that life brings<br \/>\nAnd the need to find a friend<br \/>\nThe suspense of realisation<br \/>\nAnd hoping in the end<br \/>\nYou are taken home to a warm place<br \/>\nA place that will be where<br \/>\nA puppy dog a bitch in fact<br \/>\nWill anticipate and share<\/p>\n<p>Moments of great pleasure<br \/>\nThe assumption clearly there<br \/>\nThe infant primed by instinct<br \/>\nUnknowing of despair<br \/>\nDiscovering and exploring<br \/>\nThe uncertainty perhaps<br \/>\nThe tendency for loving<br \/>\nThat was always under wraps<\/p>\n<p>Of mindlessness and anger<br \/>\nOf thoughtlessness and pain<br \/>\nWhat would a puppy know about<br \/>\nThe thuggery of  gain<br \/>\nThe open eyes evaluation<br \/>\nOf a scenario<br \/>\nWhat is just off handed<br \/>\nThe neglectful so and so<br \/>\nWho has a sick na\u00efvet\u00e9<br \/>\nAnd a darkness that does grow<\/p>\n<p>That innocence precludes<br \/>\nWhatever darkly fuel<br \/>\nMay influence a guardian<br \/>\nWho translates it into cruel<br \/>\nWhose mind is so unsound<br \/>\nWith a softening of the brain<br \/>\nA mania of nonsense<br \/>\nDeranged in fact insane<\/p>\n<p>A crackpot and a screwball<br \/>\nMost definitely a freak<br \/>\nA puppy after all<br \/>\nIs life at the peak<br \/>\nAffirming all thats good around<br \/>\nAnd realising she<br \/>\nIs undergoing a transformation<br \/>\nToward iniquity<\/p>\n<p>The fear in one so gentle<br \/>\nThe treachery one feels<br \/>\nEntangled in the fury<br \/>\nThe provocateur who reels<br \/>\nOff his criminality<br \/>\nWho misrepresents his all<br \/>\nWho is wicked and is shameful<br \/>\nThe intentions of a fool<\/p>\n<p>In pursuit of something<br \/>\nIrrelevant and wrong<br \/>\nHe gives me lots of kicks and punches<br \/>\nNothing does belong<br \/>\nI do try to avoid him<br \/>\nHide away and hope<br \/>\nHe just forgets I am with him<br \/>\nFor it seems that he can&#8217;t cope<\/p>\n<p>Not only with me but anything<br \/>\nHe is a rotten nasty sod<br \/>\nA couple of times he has hurt me bad<br \/>\nI am closer to my God<br \/>\nANubis I now chatter<br \/>\nTo Anubis in my sleep<br \/>\nThis man that is my master<br \/>\nHe really makes me weep<\/p>\n<p>He has a strange morbidity<br \/>\nHe harms himself I see<br \/>\nHe is always bleeding<br \/>\nHe is toxic actually<br \/>\nAll the time I am on edge<br \/>\nAnd what he is going to do<br \/>\nHe goes out in his garage<br \/>\nAnd bangs away, it&#8217;s true<\/p>\n<p>Who  could not be frightened<br \/>\nWhat are his intentions to be<br \/>\nIf I do try to escape<br \/>\nI haven&#8217;t found a key<br \/>\nTo success in life I don&#8217;t know how<br \/>\nTo get around outside<br \/>\nCan one easily just get food to eat<br \/>\nOr is that denied<\/p>\n<p>But I am really apprehensive<br \/>\nWhen he comes back his tone<br \/>\nI feel I am in danger<br \/>\nJust being alone<br \/>\nI have that vulnerability<br \/>\nThat precarious desire<br \/>\nI am helpless and unguarded<br \/>\nMy future here seems dire<\/p>\n<p>Tonight I got a real shock<br \/>\nHe had a hammer in his hand<br \/>\nWhere are you you blighter?<br \/>\nI could understand<br \/>\nHe had a nail a long one<br \/>\nWhat I want to do<br \/>\nIs nail this into your fucking head<br \/>\nAnd out your eyeballs too<\/p>\n<p>Well I went into spasm<br \/>\nHis thrust was very strong<br \/>\nHe also stank of slcohol<br \/>\nSo I knew something was wrong<br \/>\nHe held me really tightly<br \/>\nAnd he banged this nail in me<br \/>\nThe pain was excruciating<br \/>\nAnd then he just threw me<br \/>\nIn to a box and carried me<br \/>\nOut into the night<br \/>\nTossed me on the seat with him<br \/>\nI was at the height of terror<br \/>\nI was shaking I was thinking I would die<br \/>\nI heard the motor running<br \/>\nStill really wondering why<\/p>\n<p>He was breathing really heavily<br \/>\nAnd the car moved off real fast<br \/>\nThe box that I was in fell forward<br \/>\nReally I aghast<br \/>\nAt just how awfully angry he was<br \/>\nAnd I hadn&#8217;t done<br \/>\nAnything to upset him<br \/>\nBut there was just no fun<\/p>\n<p>In him he was repeating to himself<br \/>\nSome mantra he<br \/>\nHad to go to the forest and Fucking well bury me<br \/>\nThe air was cold and the pace  was rough<br \/>\nAnd my heart was beating so<br \/>\nAs he stopped the car and lifted me out<br \/>\nAnd off with him I did go<\/p>\n<p>Not far into the forest<br \/>\nHe scooped a mound of leaves<br \/>\nAnd earth and put me on the ground<br \/>\nNobody believes<br \/>\nThe evil I have witnessed<br \/>\nBut now was all alone<br \/>\nHe left me in the forest<br \/>\nDark, to whimper and to groan<\/p>\n<p>I realised my end was near<br \/>\nI realised that I<br \/>\nWas speaking to Anubis<br \/>\nJust asking  now why<br \/>\nSuch a little baby needs<br \/>\nTo suffer in this way<br \/>\nAnd not getting any answers<br \/>\nBut just feeling the dismay<\/p>\n<p>I closed my eyes really hoping<br \/>\nThat this would be the end<br \/>\nI came here looking for someone<br \/>\nWho would be my friend<br \/>\nSomeone I could love<br \/>\nAnd be loved by<br \/>\nBut it was not to be<br \/>\nI have found a madman<br \/>\nBorn of lunacy<\/p>\n<p>Every so often I did Yelp<br \/>\nAnd someone with some worth<br \/>\nHeard me and with their hands<br \/>\nRapidly did unearth<br \/>\nAnubis must have sent them<br \/>\nAngels of the light<br \/>\nI was taken to the RSPCA<br \/>\nSo as to continue my fight<\/p>\n<p>But there the light was obvious<br \/>\nThe smell of drugs and pain<br \/>\nThey looked at me they saw the nail<br \/>\nAnd they said life would be in vain<br \/>\nThey took a big syringe<br \/>\nAnd stabbed it in my paw<br \/>\nThats when the lights went out on me<br \/>\nAnd I was knocking on the door<br \/>\nOf the rainbow bridge<br \/>\nThat old motel<br \/>\nIn Heaven far away<br \/>\nI had come to earth<br \/>\nFor love and care<br \/>\nVia the RSPCA<\/p>\n<p>There are lunatics all over<br \/>\nEven the men in white<br \/>\nFor me the human population<br \/>\nAll of them are shite<\/p>\n<p>They seem to lack affection<br \/>\nThey are ugly and they stink<br \/>\nThey are always eating animals<br \/>\nI think there is a link<br \/>\nThe fridge was full of dead souls<br \/>\nLegs and paws and feet<br \/>\nI should have realised sooner<br \/>\nThat I was just more meat<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The expectation that life brings And the need to find a friend The suspense of
