The Dog Day Afternoon (About 6.879132513… Hours) Poem by Joe Rosochacki

The Japs did it again,
In began on December 7,1941
Then they produced more efficient cars
Sony owns Paramount, Rockefeller Center,
The Radio Music Hall Dancers became somewhat Geisha girls,
They mass produce electronics,
It is just me
Yamaha guitars, Yamaha Motorbikes. Yamaha pianos, Yamaha Drums
(Texas A & M Music Department uses them)
Mitsubishi cars, Mitsubishi Motors,
Toyota Prius, Honda Accords
Most of all Sushi and Sashimi
But they would their way;
26 Hours of it,
They reinvented time, they made a day longer?
Second by Second, Bit by Bit
The Mayans had twenty date months,
Our Calendars had gone through many changes,
They will have to pay,
The Japanese have underestimated themselves,
Because every Akita, Tosa, Kai, and Shiba (6.5 hours a breed)
Has their day.
