from "My Turn to Confess," a poem from Mr. [Charles] Simic's 2005 collection, "My Noiseless Entourage," also published by Harcourt: A dog trying to write a poem on why he barks,
That's me, dear reader!
They were about to kick me out of the library
But I warned them,
My master is invisible and all-powerful.
Still, they kept dragging me out by my tail.
from New York Times: Charles Simic, Surrealist With Dark View, Is Named Poet Laureate
