I was once in Mexico with my dad,
his friend,
and his friend's son.
Well in Mexico,
dogs roam the streets unleashed.
I started to shake
and my fingernails dug into my palms.
On high alert even the slightest of sounds
range in my ears.
My dad's friend's son asked me why the fuck I was having a freak out.
I told him I had a phobia of dogs.
Then the classic: "What do you mean? Puppies are soo cute!"
I told him i had trauma.
"Well that's your fault then, dogs wouldn't hurt a fly."
But all the dogs I've come across
have left scars.
