Question: When do the dog days start?
re UTube link: I’ve been tooting this same music sequence lately on my licorice stick.. uncanny to wake up and hear it over here …
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ besides there is no money above fifth fret…. or in open G .. for that matter.
Question: When do the dog days start? This question has been dogging me all morning. I’m a whipped puppy when old Yeller greets me in the morning, stretching and yawning, shaking out her fur. And we say: “Who’s afraid of a big bad dog like you?” Makes me remember this short proclamation:
Hold on Dear …
‘gainst the long hours
of emptiness, against
the wind’s tearing force
You are my mind
made particular,
my heart in its place.
(Hold on Dear House, Stan Tymorek)
As for poochie, just emerging from under the porch to grab your attention: is he imagining …
…
Fortified trees have knotholes
from which animals look out
from behind a corner of Grace’s House
another creature peeks out.
Important in the foreground
most carefully drawn
the dog smiles, his foreleg curled, his eyes like an aster
Nose and collar are made with great attention
this dog is loved by Grace …
… Between our world and hers,
runs a sweet river
No, it is not the road
It is the uncrossed crystal
Water between our ignorance and her truth.
… because
alas, there is no road to Grace’s House! …
(excerpt, Grace’s House; Thomas Merton)
‘Dog days’ never starts as it never ends as long as there is you, his best friend. And, yes, I know you were talking about the weather… so there. It is like this – electrons can and do exist in two places simultaneous… so thus parallel universes … and it is there stays poochie, between universes, until you emerge to greet the day.
