Omar Wasn't Having It

I took my Omar shopping

At an upscale doggie store

He thought we were going for his food

But I intended to do more.

I'd been thinking about his K-9 pack

And how cute they all would be

Especially the females and puppies

With a few trinkets from me.

Omar wasn't having it

Wouldn't even look at me

I couldn't get my point across

I thought this time he'd see.



No way Ma.

 "Omar won't you listen

It's not that big a deal

Just some trinkets for your Pack

Don't worry about the bill."

Omar still didn't look at me

Determined to stand his ground

Then decided he would tell me

"We don't need no trinkets around.

Ma, we don't live in the city

It's more than country too

A wilderness you'll never know
No way to explain it to you.

So let's hold off on the trinkets

They may be fine one day

But right now things in K-9 Town

Are better left this way."

I FINALLY UNDERSTOOD. DUH!!
