Me and my dog

June 1, 2008 | What do you think? (4)
Category :

i dreamt i adopted
a dog without a body or a head
and we went fishing.

afterwards, while I was
untangling the line,
a nice lady came up to see how
my dog and i were doing.

"his tail isn't wagging much," she said.
"i don't think he's ok."

    the dog is clearly W, the tangled line iraq, but the adoption link bewilders. could the lady be hrc, or mother earth?

    You may be wondering, "how did that dog go fishing like that?" I'll tell you: I'd made him a head and body out of paper-machė.

    paper-mache...now i know the dog represents W.

    thank you, enjoy your salads, good night.

    Sounds like a Zen riddle: What is a dog without a body or a head?
