my dog ate rat-sak and is still alive

some things I saw this week:

blood in the hallway
a skip full of a cottage that I have loved forever
yellow vomit in my toilet
white ash in a perfect circle in my backgarden
an entire sodden lost cigarette in my lawn
the inside of a suburban buddhist temple
white mist in my eyes
the work space of the nearest vet
unconscious dogs
and bound up cats
a line of little children running cross country
and two others playing bug in a rug

They are lovely and strange things to see.

I am glad your dog survived. Our black dog Jasper ate snail bait when he was a puppy - truly the only time we ever used it - and it was frightening waiting to see if he would be okay. Poisoning leave you and the dog so helpless and frightened.
