Tired of all the women victimized in the news
She bought a pistol for self protection.

She liked the powerful feeling it gave her,
Like being an equal opportunity gunslinger

One day a lousy, male driver in a car cut her off
And yelled and swore at her as if she was at fault.

She pulled out her pistol and pointed it at him
To shut him up and make him get out of her face.

Her bulletproof plan got dangerously out of hand
When he pulled out his pistol and aimed it at her.

Fearing for her life, she shot him dead right there
And spent years in jail for her fateful power play.

It must have been a mental aberration
That made him think he was a dog
And always dress in a dog costume.
His wife, tired of his craziness, left him.
He barked her a long, forlorn goodbye.
Without her to feed him, he soon died,
A melancholic, human dog impostor.
And he reincarnated into a bona fide dog.

His ex wife, an old woman when he
Returned to life as a charming chihuahua,
Unaware of his former life as her mate
Purchased him at a petstore in Idaho.

He traveled to India to meet the brilliant-eyed sage
Whose force-field, palpable energy magnetized him,
Who told him the real him was beyond the mind
And showed him how to find his real, eternal Self.
After his enlightenment he left the material world,
And spent the rest of his life as a sadhu in India,
Who helped thousands of Indians and westerners
Seeking the truth beyond their transient lives.
