Mondo Cane

Good, Bad, and Ugly

Mondo Cane

Remembering the
Magnificent Mr. B. B.
Reminded me of
Jim’s mutt
Known from when
I bunked with him
On Fort Hill
Back when
Young and poor
Lots of brown rice
Gathered in front of
Black and white TV
There that night
When Billis
Also a mostly shepherd cur
Gave birth to pups
She promptly ate
Evoking Jim’s rage
At his Dogus Horribillis
The contemptible
Billis for short
Just a little good
Our fondly remembered
Mr. B. B.
Nature balances
With bad and ugly
Better to admire
Rare beauty
An ode to joy
With fur
