the assumption of home turf
raiding a skip

Aengus
immobile and silent
it looks as though he's shut down
in the simple act of walking
but no!
his nose is working hard;
the scents that rain reveals
top layers of pollution washed away
revealing rich loam
and the passage of people;
other dogs, wildlife
and now the deliberation
the delicate decision of the day
where to poop?
