Pit Happy


That hour and a half with my pitbull,
Skimming streets and corners,
Meeting amused onlookers,
And working my bones,
Afforded me the luxury
Of my thoughts.

Though I smell of my companion,
I'm in no rush to wash.

My blood ran hot,
My lungs expanded on tree air,
Admiring muscles on my pit,
But more than all that
I had the luxury of my thoughts.
