Dreamlife Of Dogs
Shriekback

What occurs in the mind

Of a cur by the fire?

On the rug as he growls and he drools

As he spasms and twitches?


A bloodbath of rabbits

Where the faecal aromas are sublime?

In the dream life of dogs

These we think are the riches


There the crow's provocation

Will no longer be endured.

There the insolent rat is subued

And is stricken and shaken


There as King of the Rains

The Wild Rover

(The bitches' rump so fine)

This the dream life of dogs?

Or are we mistaken?



For all that we know, in the hound's inner world

There are marvels to rival the greatest

That man can envision

A palace of scent

Where the laws of the pack are redefined

Is the dream life of dogs

Maybe ripe for revision?


But the dog as he sleeps

Is opaque as we are

We dream as we live all alone

In the nightmare of history


And as much as I know who you are

In the dark behind your eyes

The dream life of dogs

Is no more of a mystery
