Black Dog
/Collaborative end-rhyme poem with poet Karlo Sevilla, whose work was previously published here in Grey Thoughts: he wrote the first stanza, and the second was penned by yours truly, a non-binary creative.

I.
Black dog doesn't bark; I've heard it already.
Black dog doesn't bite; the marks are still here.
What black dog does is peer
six feet above me.
II.
black dog tousles up the sheets it ain’t allowed on
black dog keeps me up at midnight, gets its loud on
black dog, white tricks, gotta teach em daily
black dog doesn’t bark, six feet above me
