Iâd Kill Your Dog For Respect (Free verse) by Crann Mascher
Sabrina,
I value our friendship. I think what we share is
Rare.
You can always make me laugh. Youâre so funny,
Honey.
Plus, you are a beautiful lady. Youâre hotâ
--NOT!
No seriously, youâre pretty attractive, and youâre rich,
Beeyotch.
Youâre my best friend in the world, and in part, thatâs why Iâm
telling you this:
Iâd kill your dog for respect.
I donât see this scenario coming up anytime soon, but who knows
What the future holds?
I might get approached by a stone-cold street gang who admires
My moxie, and is considering letting me in
But wants me to prove myself to them, and requires
I commit an unspeakably violent sin.
In that case, I canât promise I wouldnât break
Into your house late at night while Biscuitâs asleep,
Grab him by the throat and twist and shake
Then throw his body in my dusky-colored Jeep.
Iâd leave the door open so youâd think he ran away
Youâd put up âLostâ flyersâIâd even help you out,
My words and facial expressions would not convey
The slightest hint, of that I have no doubt.
Meanwhile, Iâd deliver Biscuitâs body to the gang
Hold it aloft in front of Hard Thug Z,
Tie Biscuit to a rope and let him hang
A tribute to the newest awesome gang member: ME.
I hope I have been clear: I treasure being your friend and confidant.
I love watching âDesperate Housewivesâ with you and talking on the
phone.
When we have lunch, itâs always the high point of my day.
I even LIKE Biscuit, but Iâve gotta come correct:
Iâd kill your dog for some sweet respect.
