Sweat

My dogs are pulling me around the block

Mailbox through mailbox. Their sense of scent is

So superior to mine that I have to brag

My brain's in like manner big, I'm just taking my nose for a walk.

They can whiff the Mexican river-mud and sweat

From the bricks, the salt air rising from the Japanese metal,

The thicket rot of mahogany, the Asian jasmine and Malaysian

Tires, the Portland mortar and Chinese bolts.

They can sniff what dog's in have affection for with what dog isn't,



The way the take wing on the lip of my beer glass scents a sweaty

horse in Dusseldorf in the back of a German brewery.

It's useful to be the Alpha of the pack, Odysseus lashed by

Dead-reckoning to temptation and terror: remote housewives

In empty McMansions, automatic sprinklers spraying oblivion

Over this subdivision sailing, by the agency of God, by dog, by nose, by means of heart.
