wow. this reminds me of a sappy yet somehow tearjerkish poem i read once about the dog as the ever willing servant to the master, licking the hand that beats him, and so on.
but, the last line clinches it. the plot twist. leading us along a stray thread only to tie it all in at the end. very nice.
however, maybe your master *does* run fingers through your hair, but not literally (oh that's good, since we speak on the written word!).
very good.
