The Nature of the Dog
Loyalty, the vibrant nature of the casual dog.
Know forth by the destitute and common mortality
of the daily friend. Man's best friend resides in a dog
for it grows by heritage like a small child flamed with
a passion for a purpose, yet chilled witht the persistent
wait to arise. Ageless, the child grows and comes
to age for that purpose and wakes as being first born.
Thus is the nature of the dog.

Poetry, the Gay Science
Poetry, mockingly called "the gay science" for it's whimsical
stance of ideas for fancy and toil is likely so called, for the
whimsical way they toss as if some blatant scribble from an
internet blog. When in the past they were used to move nations
with the fever of grand speech and talk. Yet saw so many men
those days that stood against them, discard each as easily
as before by our present mention. Perhaps the men of old
had colder hearts, so perhaps they had the brains of the so
called adolescents, so vain in their strain of thought,
to dissuade any and all that which doesn't meet it.
