but um dogs
kind of recall
that purity
of lost silence
of silent pictures.
a dog in a talkie
is still silent
or like that one marx
brother who refused.
though a dog never had to
make a statement
about superfluous sound.
and maintained
the elegant silence
regardless of our unwitting
technology.
the dog might make a sound
but not speech.
the dog is an homage
to the dog of silence.
