try whispering to your dog

Say what?

We’re not as special as we think we are…

We don’t really rule the earth,

we can’t fly,

or snooze at the bottom

of the deep end of the pool,

and we can’t even roll over when we’re born,

we tend to be messy

when we’re not paying attention,

most of us think wearing shoes is normal,

we think dirt is dirty,

we don’t like to admit

that we eat dead things,

and we think a horse whisperer

is some weird guy,

we think reading and writing

is our thing,

and we think “Sparky, here boy!”

is the right way to call the pup,

and we ignore this mystery:

What if your dog can talk,

but he won’t?
