The Kingdom Of Dogs (28) Poem by Freeyad Ibrahim

By Freeyad Ibrahim

He let them play ball in the garden
The neighbour passed
One of them threw himself at him
and tore off his clothes and chest
Bleeding
The judge questioned him
Your dogs have bitten the man without your being with them
The owner of the two dogs said:
'They are not my dogs,
but they are my sons.
They were playing with the ball as usual.'

Is there a son who bites?

I repeat the judge's question: Does a boy bite?
Before this question, I wonder
If the man has married a female dog?
