My dog Cannella

​

she’s my fine companion accommodation.
I take her with me everywhichwhere, 
it helps me get all
around. She’s no funny rat on my shoulder 
hiding in my shirt
or anything like that, 
no long snake around my neck. It’s
people I don’t like very much. But 
I am lonely too, and
sometimes people will talk 
to Cannella, even to me when
she’s around. Sometimes some.
