I don't own a dog, in blame games
Like the ones that run off on streets
At night chasing skirts, Casanova
But sometimes, on pavements
I step in their aftermath
Slippery steps that leaves a stink
It stays with you and desperation sets in
I have been shamed by my own doing
Where grass parks are found, I do try the feet rub
This should never have happened, to be taken home
It leaves a stink, I feel abused, feeling defiled
Morally corrupted, in parts I played, oh and I know I did
Oh for the dog owner, irresponsible owner
Who left troubles on pavements, troubles
For my eyes, that paid no attention, distracted
On what lies ahead
And wondering sight seeing attraction
Sometimes its seconds before the step
Frozen in slow motion tipping over
Just before feet lands, seeing the feet land
This is troubles, metaphoric
In metamorphosis troubles
Hilarious. Thanks.
