Dog Nights in the Canary Islands Teeth sharp, ribs bare they floated free in the barn cellar I poked at one with a stick and it turned into a heap of rags When I reached for another it flew through a hole in the wall Other greyish brownish dogs swam through the fetid air Fat canaries pecked at my hair at nearly empty trays of food and water as I reached for the stairs on this mystic night
