IN DOG WE TRUST
It’s often said
“In God We Trust,”
but you know one little thing,
should one flip over
that second little word
our true belief may be revealed:
“In Dog We Trust.”
Think about it,
Dog is touted as Man’s Best Friend,
The obligatory unit of the
Perfect Family.
Protector of the Nuclear Home
And the perfect Macho pet,
Go Out And Attack Someone.
Go Out And Make Noise.
Loud, Abrupt, Spontaneous.
Just like a child.
And
Just like a child,
We see no end of stuffing intruding
Their supposed innocent mugs
Plastered over our close-ups
As if that was supposedly so innocent.
(Then they whine about the pedophilia
and bestiality they themselves
have encouraged!)
You know,
The dog is the quintessential Child.
The child that never “grows up.”
The child that is most “obedient.”
And most likely to see the Master
as
God.
As in
“In God We Trust.”
More aptly…
In OURSELVES we trust!
But frankly,
There somewhere is a market for dog-head cheese.
