Preserving all the Pleasantries of Life

That dog on that side of the fence wants nothing more than to be on this side of the fence, for on this side of the fence my dog and I play happily while on that side of the fence that dog watches enviously. That dog has thus begun digging a hole under the fence so that he can come to this side of the fence. Sometimes that dog digs for hours on end, fixated as though on drugs. Other times that dog does not care about the hole he is digging, and so I dig it for him. I hope that dog finishes his hole soon so that he will join my dog and me on this side of the fence. I hope, too, that that dog’s pretty, waify owner will come looking for him.
