Guide dog


  a guide dog could be trained to make decisions for you
to recognize the name on caller id
and indicate which calls to pick up
and which to let ring
a large black guide dog could scare off 
threatening people who want to steal your wallet,
would make friends for you, wagging her tail
enthusiastically for nice people,
dogs know them instinctively.
 A well trained guide dog would mold us to
her schedule for our own good, long naps
during the day, rawhide or other treats
in the evening, and plenty of playtime.
dogs don't work.
the western economy would skid to a halt
and everyone would be much happier.
