The dogs have been hunting
the cat food again
All of them lined up
like the three Dogateers
All for one One for all
they all shout as
the first dog rushes the cat
who scatters away
leaving the food unattended
I run toward the cat bowl
but the dog with great ears
jumps on me in pretend affection
I am momentarily consumed
stunned by the sudden dog love
That is when the third one
the sneaky one grabs the bowl
spilling it all over the floor
Where the three of them fight
each other for every morsel
while the cat and I are unable
to do anything but watch
the Dogateers clean up the mess
