Those Mad Dogs That We Feed Poem by RIC BASTASA

Those Mad Dogs That We Feed



there are mad dogs
but still dogs you say
and you feed them
in the name of humanity

a mad dog bites you
and kills you and it will bite
again
for another day of its mad life

still you tell them to feed them
as a gesture of your humanity

the mad dogs live
like bombs in buses
in parks, in malls, in churches
and mosques

humanity may be diminished
but it will always live and thrive
like love and hope
