Why? asks Fido

A poem by Fido.

*******

Why did ya wanna join this site?

There\'s a character on it, you\'ll meet

Always singing, so he thinks

It\'s more like screeching

 

They call him Orchi, or Porchi (Porky)

Or they call him whatever - within reason!

Thinks he is married to KP

In a love-hate relationship

Or a trout-hate one! heehee

 

He (and Goldfinch) are millions of years old, they say

I\'m nearly as old as them

He dunno what he\'s on about half the time

He\'s too busy watering down tipples

You\'ll hear his water syphon - Psstt!

No, that\'s not p****d (ooh!)

That\'s what I bark to save ya from. Doh!

 

He\'s had a sheltered life

He\'s prone to swoons

If anything \'hot\' is printed in poems

But I\'m here to save him from swoons

In case he falls

 

Yes, I\'m a reading, talking, barking dog

I will only bark at ya

If ya forget to mark certain poems 18+

I can\'t have ya conveniently \'forgetting\'!

Me bark is worse than me bite

But it won\'t shut me up

Tossing me a few dog biscuits

Greetings and woofs to ya!
