I haven't seen white dog poo in years.

Possibly because I'm vegetarian

but more probably because supermarkets

have replaced the local butcher

and instead of bones being given to dog owners,

they're now crushed, minced and sold

as cheap sausages and burger meat

or fed to dogs as treat bars and cheap brands.

No more calcified poo

to guide you in the winter dark.
