B-A-T-H-


As evening ebbs
a bath unwanted
necessitates thought...
was it for you
or for moi...
My name is Scratchy
is it reason enough
I had an itch
that's why I scratch
no bugs on me
no ticks or fleas
it's just an itch
so let me be.

A tail (no pun) of woe for a dog with allergies, a fungus in the tall grass she so loves to tunnel through for rodents, but always gets a bath after or will scratch all of her hair off. But it was worth it, we got to play chase the stick (in the house) till she wore me out. I do want her to be clean for at least one day...awwww...poor Scratchy...WHATEVER!!!
