MAN

MAN

by Beth Williams

I never fail to marvel at

The treachery of man;

Nor how this clever diplomat

Achieves his cunning plan.

If he should want the chair you're in -

Without a trace of guile -

He'll ask if you would like a spin

In the countryside awhile?

What joyous words he's just announced!

You race him to the door!

But wait!  That man is now ensconced

In the chair you had before!

for the American Dachshund magazine, February, 1971
