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.
