recruiting takes place in peoples     
 yards, or outside stores, or with  a bit 
        of violence and trickery.         
                                          
 throw  the  fourleggers   into  a   van. 
 decode them.  sort  them by  species and 
                  taste.                  
                                          
 decorate  the  dog,  decorate  the  dogs 
 mind,  upsize  the  paws,  or the  whole 
  creature, frame a burroughs portrait,   
 sing  a tune about being brought to your 
 roads  end and reborn as something else. 
                                          
 you    can't   go    the    same    way, 
  unfortunately, though another path is   
 open. a grimier,  grainier, more painful 
 approach.  hopefully bliss is at the end 
 of  it, but  i  don't know.  might  just 
 ruin  you.   will   probably  ruin  you.
