old dog, no new tricks




he slinks in like a wet dog

plops down upon her,
hikes her legs

he wimpers like a pup

rolls over - plays dead

sometimes monkeys are dogs

    something about the line..
    hikes her legs that gives the write a sexy feel.. -- i know that wasn't what you were going for .. but i think it's a really good line
    in and of itself

    have you considered an "and then" on that last?

    like this piece very much .

    Too many of us can identify all too well with this one, my Friend. Those of us...who've had monkeys, anyway. Good luck in Mary's contest, Sweetie.

    LOL Oh the connotations in this one. What more needs to be said when this so eloquently says it all?
