Men's Tiny Brains

Woman Chases ManImage via Wikipedia
What tells my tiny dog
it is time to chase?
He sees something move,
and he is on the case.

It's almost like his brain,
as small as it is,
is tuned to just one thing--
and better if it's kids.

But he's not prejudiced,
all's in his purview:
trucks or geese or leaves, or
me or even you.

Some men will not play with him
because of his trait--
when he chases their feet
feeling turns to hate.

Why?

Why does he not want to see me? Is it all a game? For when I saw him the last time ---Wait, the rain... Maybe he wasn't kind to me...
