A Dog That Has Been Kicked Way Too Many Times Poem by Dorsey Baker

Baby I'm sitting here
in this chair
so full of loneliness
and despair
and baby I feel
baby I feel
baby I feel just like a dog
that has been kicked
way too many times

Big 'ol tears
rolling down my face
darkness all in
this room
and baby I feel
baby I feel
baby I feel just like a dog
that has been kicked
way too many times

a dog that can't
no longer bark
a dog that can't
no longer bite
his teeth are gone
so much bitterness
in his mouth
baby that is the way I feel
I feel just like a dog
that has been kicked
way way way too many times!
