Love Dog

Lonely little love dog that
No one knows the name of
I know why you cry out
Desperate and devout

Timid little tether your
Eyes set on the ether your
Moon in a bella luna and
Howling hallelujah

Nameless you above me come
Lay me low and love me this
Lonely little love dog that
No one knows the name of

Curse me out in free verse and
Wrap me up and reverse this
Patience is a virtue
Until it's silence burns you

And something slow has
Started in me as
Shameless as an ocean
Mirrored in devotion

Something slow has
Sparked up in me as
Dog cries for a master and
Sparks are whirling faster

Lonely little love dog that
No one knows the ways of
Where the land is low is
Where the bones'll show through

Lonely little love dog that
No one knows the days of
Where the land is low is
Where the water flows to
And holds you
