Lassie and Senryu
by Gregory Braquet

Lassie Eats Chickens

Between the takes, Lassie decides to let her dog out. It's the part of her the public never sees. There's something in the early spring air and this farm shoot that has her whiskers in an uproar. If the moon was up, she would howl. Instead, she lets her hair down. She chases her tail for the hell of it, tires, and pees on a tree. Suddenly, she kicks up some dust, plops on her back and grovels in it, all four paws dancing skyward. Then just as suddenly stops, sits right side up, lifts her hind leg quarter, and delicately licks her vagina. Just now, she picks up the scent trail of a male hottie -- Collie Cock-- but it is fleeting and she growls to herself, "There's never a hard bone around when you need one." She sniffs a foreign turd to get her mind off of it-- doesn't work. Frustrated she pounces on a bunch of nearby chickens, catches one by the neck, shakes it violently till death, and begins to chow down -- fuck the feathers. In the foreground a stagehand or trainer (whatever) is screaming his disapproval. Lassie just licks her bloodied chops and barks like the heated bitch that she is. It's the first time in a long time she feels like herself; Mongrel. Yes, she likes the sound of that, the way it rolls off her panting tongue. No movie stars here, just a pampered stray desperately in want of the open wild.



"If you're looking for those dainty little things, sugar these ain't them."
-- Madam commenting on the sparse selection of remaining fillies for her late night John.



Love Hurts

Spare me your roses
But bring forth your thorns and let
Me bleed my way home (feelings)

Can I count the ways
I've murdered you in my mind
NO -- Far too many



Hollywood Red Skin

White man comes to build
Brings guns and firewater
We deserve to die



Strip Club

There she levitates
Constricts and sheds no new skin
Her eyes shine like coins



Extinction Cost

The poor buffalo
Paid an ungodly amount
For roaming charges
