irritation dog

By Tony Brown

barking
barking
irritation dog in my head–
go stand in the road —
go die

you make my throat hurt
i don’t even like talking

so stop stealing my voice

go die and let me be
silent
unless I can be sweet-toned
and no dog
yelping unimportant excitement
at the smallest thing
worrying every bone

shut up
i won’t feed you
get out
i won’t house you

i’m not going to say it again
