maple bacon

I was standing in the kitchen
frying maple bacon
me and four dogs
standing in the kitchen
noses up, eyes urgent
unblinking
quiet
tails wagging
watching my every move
and as I looked at them
and they looked at me
I knew
I knew I'd better fry enough bacon
for the five of us

    My mother swears that their dog has telekinetic powers that he uses to make food fall to the floor so he can eat it.

    I think all dogs have those powers. Very cute and fun poem.
