The New Dogma
by C. Albert
Thou shalt not beg,
bite, bark incessantly
nor steal biscuits.
Before the Dog Prophecies
there was only ignorance
and fleas.
Follow the righteous
path to the dog park.
Sit and stay,
Roll over,
Do not eat grass.
Praise ye the one Dog
who smites evil
with thy paws,
who giveth bones
to the hungry—
Hallelujah!
