14 Days Away From Home
a Devil
Pup Poem by Justice Johnston
14
days away from home, God the days are long
14
days away from home, I really miss my mom
I
get no sleep, it’s much too hot and the pups show no respect
I
tell them to do what they’re told, ‘cause that’s what we expect
14
days away from home, these pups are gonna pay!
My
arms are burnt, covered in bites
I’ve
seen too many unpleasant sights
14
days away from home, God the days are long
14
days away from home, the pups act like they’re dumb
14
days away from home, I think my feet are numb!
We
get no “thank you’s” nor any pay for working and suffering every day
Their
voices weak from loud “Yes Ma’am’s
Cuts
and bruises on both my hands
14
days away from home, energy has gone away
14
days away from home, almost fell asleep at Midway!
But
seeing instructors shout and scream
Is
the most exciting thing I’ve ever seen
Although
I’m tired, I do not regret
Making
memories I’ll never forget.
14
days away from home,
I
never want to leave!
