It’s gotta be dog piss, right?
That growing stream
flowing into the gutter
with its unique amber tint,
that’s coming from a dog.
Gotta be.

That can’t be a human
at the building’s wall
pissing up a storm.
No one would be so crass
so senseless as to
just pull it out
in front of a police department.
It’s gotta be dog behavior,
surely.

I mean, it needs to be someone
unconcerned with social form,
with the behavior of the civilized.
It simply cannot be some
person
and I simply refuse
to be the one
to look at the pisser
to prove I’m right.
