Dog for a Day: January 2012
http://dogforaday.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Dog for a Day. Sniffing the corporate jungle, lifting a leg. Friday 20 January 2012. The Night Comes with Noises. Tap dripping hard-water complaints:. Endless one-note samba,. One-night-standing with a sink and a steel plate. Scratch of plastic tissue-box leaning against the shelf. In constant conversation with. Geck-o geck-o geck-o geck-o. Orient fan in persistent battle with pusillanimous regulator:. Whirring victoriously to the end of time - 2012 -. When the meek shall inherit the earth.

Dog for a Day: Poem 2 - A sonnet
http://dogforaday.blogspot.com/2012/04/poem-2-sonnet.html
Dog for a Day. Sniffing the corporate jungle, lifting a leg. Tuesday 3 April 2012. Poem 2 - A sonnet. This one is a slightly messed-up Shakespearean sonnet. It's in iambic pentameter alright, but entirely in rhyming couplets. Not in alternating rhyme scheme (a-b-a-b, c-d-c-d, etc.), as the conventional Shakespearean sonnet is. The subject matter is, however, Shakespearean. Provided Bill was in a bar in South India. Which pillage they with merry march bring chome. You are a pretty man inside a bar.

Dog for a Day: February 2012
http://dogforaday.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Dog for a Day. Sniffing the corporate jungle, lifting a leg. Saturday 4 February 2012. Mental anarchy and social peace. The right size in Hush Puppies. Less cricket, and far less fuss. A non-stick pan that knows it’s one. Dark chocolate in the fridge. CSI with some more fun. Less troubled water under the bridge. Blue jeans and red corduroys. That dark-wood Fabindia cot. My sister’s brain and a three-year-old’s toys. A t-shirt that says, “Out, damned spot! Water bottles that fill themselves.

Dog for a Day. Sniffing the corporate jungle, lifting a leg. Monday 21 March 2011. Where her shin is blue,. The ball probably kept low—. Such a calculated blow. On her burning head,. The emphatic gash of a full toss;. An indefinite period of memory loss. And all along her sides,. The blackened blobs of failed cover drives. He wakes in the morning,. A gentle headache keeping him calm,. He runs his fingers down her screaming arm. 8220;Sorry, honey, about the batting practise. She tries to turn her neck.
