Basket Case-Basset Face

pldabbs

Bassett Hound yowls with a sad face.
He just lost 3 of his puppies who were run over by a car.
Woman (his owner) crying inside the house with a sad face. 
She just lost three of her children in an auto accident.
Put the two side by side and the faces look just alike
The first has a Bassett Face
The second is a Basket Case
The woman's face like the dog's
The dog's face like the woman's.
He'll get over it, she may not...
For a long time.

  • Comment from author about the poem: A play on words..."Basset Face" and "Basket Case", also the effect that 'death' has upon us as the 'livers'.
