hit the road, jack...and john, david, joseph and steve.

he's a handsome fellow, you should see him.
he has beautiful eyes and a happy face.
he sometimes comes when called,
though he is known to unreasonably sulk.
he waits anxiously for me to come home,
and sometimes, he isn't even there when i return.
he remains stubbornly by my side.
but then again, he accepts gifts from the neighbour nearby.
he comforts me when i'm sad, and holds my hand when i cry
and sometimes, he just disappears, without a sound.
i know i don't have to go looking for him,
because you cannot command his presence.

you can only wish for it.
and then dream that your wish comes true.
and before that, you must hope that you dream
that your wish comes true.

no, he's not the dog that you think he is.

though he is known to be faithful
to every single one of his goddesses.
