my dog barking
at its own
shadow a stranger
in the house
who looks like
me and I
seem to be
somewhere else
possibly walking
an unknown dog
possibly in the
house talking
to my shadow
or the dog’s
or already
on my way
to somewhere
else entirely

I like this poem it sends its message of confusion as to where one might be with such poetic style. Loved it a fave
Enjoyable, clever write. Thanks for sharing!!
This is me staggering in on a Saturday night, taking the dog out and realising after a mile there's no dog on the lead.
Okay, you convinced me, I'll dive into my existential side again 😭
Loved reading this ❤
