Run

for your

life, it’s time.

Just keep running

the black dog is slow.

His hunting days are over

he wants to follow you now.

Find a warm home, food, and comfort.

To sleep, dream by a warm, lazy fire.

You left food out, now he’s found his way home…

aaaaa

    I get a bit of a native American feel here, I love the idea of finding the warmth and comfort of a home. Isn’t that all of our most basic desire?
