V.	by Colin Scharf

sweating inside

the silverware drawer

a dog whimpers

for food—

the master realizes

his dog

will starve in the

event of

a power outage.

calling from

the tips

of his fingers

the master

pleads with the dog

to come out of the

silverware drawer

and lay at his feet

to keep them warm.
