Broken Ocean

My Pet Dog

I have a pet dog

and Mother has two.

They are not ordinary

dogs.

My dog's name is Ana

and she is rather nice 

and rather sweet.

She is a sickly shade

of dark green.

Mother has a dog named Rex

and he is pure black.

He has a twin sister named

Eeya who is equally dark

and deep.

We've been told they do not

look right. And they do not

act right.

And we do not understand.

For they seem to be the only

ones who can feel what we feel.

And see what we see.

And act how we act.

And be who we are.
