Mom took me to the place where I’ve been weighed
And poked
And given treats
That place is not half bad

Until I got tired and next thing I knew
I was waking up from a nap I didn’t know I took
My tummy hurt
And was colder and less furry than normal
And I somehow wedged my head in plastic

Dad picked me up
I couldn’t do anything but sit down and feel sad
About all the stuff I had endured
I was sure no other dog had ever lived through
Such confusion and anguish

I am good now
This is the thirteenth (#13) in a series of 100-word posts I plan to write. My ultimate goal is to create 100 of these 100-word posts in no set time frame. Thanks for following along!
