                              Petiquette

                              This poem was published on a coffee can label. Storyhouse Coffee is made in the American Northwest.
                              Dogs don’t use plates and silverware, They don’t use sheets on beds. They never dust or vacuum clean, Instead they use their heads.  They think of dirt as something good, Like water to the fishes. They just enjoy being here, And never do the dishes.
