picking up dog poop

I’m face to face with a worm

bloated, bleached and dead

The things that occur when our dogs poop. I’ve had many a haiku moment when my dog is pooping but I just didn’t know how to make a haiku about it. But you did! I am happy for that.

The other day Ben came back from taking Yuki out for a potty break and he was annoyed, apparently from the lack of time in his life. He complained, “I just ate a piece of toast while my dog pooped.”

An odd sort of multi-tasking.

I tried to make this into a haiku but I just couldn’t get it to work. So now I am telling you:)

But back to your haiku. This reminds me on some level with your inch worm poem from last year. We don’t often go looking for worms, they find us!

I love knowing that B had enough time to eat a piece of toast while the dog was pooping. This makes me smile! A perfect little insight into your life. Love it!
