Dog Dazed

Dog Dazed

I woke up this morning
To a noise in my yard
I grabbed for my housecoat
Ran into something hard

I opened the front door
Ran out to look around
And saw two dogs fighting
There upon the ground

I tried to seperate them
But that was my mistake
For how was I to know
My housecoat they would take

I had on no pajamas
Just my jockey underwear
When one went for my backside
He left me standing bare

Now wouldn't you just know it
Life is so unfair
Just as I lost my modesty
A cop was standing there

Don't hang up 'cause I need bail
I've been here for awhile
And a couple of my cellmates
Have begun to smile

I really don't like the look
They have within their eyes
Hurry up and pay my bail
'Cause I don't trust these guys!

Thanks Jess K

Thanks Jess. I am glad you got a laugh out of it. I would love to enter the contest but being AEC it would be a conflict. I just love to think and write about the ridiculous that did or could have happened. *LOL* It is almost as much fun to write as it is to see. I truly appreciate the comments.

*LOL* yes I remember that one

It was Churchill also. Here is the actual quote. I thought it was Oscar Wilde also. Bessie Braddock: “Sir, you are drunk.” Churchill: “Madam, you are ugly. In the morning, I shall be sober.” Rett: Nancy Astor: “Sir, if you were my husband, I would give you poison.” Churchill: “If I were your husband I would take it.”

Reminds me of a line by Peter O'Toole

but I cannot remember the movie. As he staggered into a women's bathroom, very drunk and having to pee, a startled woman said, "Sir, this is for women only!" He slurred, "So is this Madam, but occasionally I have to pass water through it". Hillarious poem Rett...If I were you, I would always wear pajamas and get rid of that troublesome bathrobe.

Thanks so much my friend. I am glad you got a laugh out of it. I always got a chuckle from Sir Winston's quotes. Thanks for the kind words on the poem. Humor is hard to do, but I love a challenge so I try to write them. Be well my friend.

Glad you got a laugh. Luckily for me this time that it was all in my head. You don't know how many times I edited and rewrote this trying to get it the way I wanted. Thank you for the comments and getting a laugh out of it. I hope the missus doesn't think you're crazy.
