Analysis of A Dog's Wisdom
In your eyes there will never be blame -
Things will become the way things are set -
But then a bond forever stays the same,
Each departure you will deeply regret.
With sorrow felt and still no nagging, yet,
You’re perceiving how often humans err,
How our suspicions wrongly refer,
How dumb we do, lost in our feelings’ fuzz,
How we all talk, our stories, how these stir.
You seem to know the pettiness in us.
