The excuse
that the dog ate my homework usually is to ridicule subject
Very quickly
the excuse of the student is in deep reject
Dogs are meat
eaters and would not lust for paper
Or engage to
the dismay of their master in such a caper
Maybe
homework turned in with some chew marks a teacher would believe
And the impending
F might with pleading be relieved
But now in
the news a rush to judgment on what a dog might eat
The canine
menu may not be limited to common doggy treats
The news out
of Portland is that of a Great Dane
Who suddenly
seemed listless, energy in wane
Off quickly
went owners and dog to the vet
To be
greeted by a sight never to forget
Quickly into
canine OR and after surgery came the total shock
Out of the Great Dane came 43 ½ pairs of socks!
Next time your sock drawer seems a wee bit short
Be concerned if your pet in the bedroom was seen to cavort
