Death and the black dog (Free verse) by Caducus a black dog followed me
when i stopped it sat
whimpering.
I lost it by my house
it found me by a grave
whimpering.
A black dog barked at me
foaming omens where she stood
holding me.
A black dog lay with me
I lost it with hope
it gnarls in its sleep
but i have awoken
to blurred parents
whimpering.

I sense expectation of death in the first two stanzas. Um, I'm not going to comment just yet. I think there's more you want to say. Let it ferment, C.
