00:00:01.656 --> 00:00:09.090 align:middle line:84%
Here's a poem-- one poem written
from a dog's point of view.

00:00:09.090 --> 00:00:10.110 align:middle line:90%
It's a short poem.

00:00:10.110 --> 00:00:14.430 align:middle line:84%
You could actually imagine the
dog having written this poem.

00:00:14.430 --> 00:00:17.610 align:middle line:84%
And the dog is just
thinking about one

00:00:17.610 --> 00:00:21.420 align:middle line:90%
of the facts of dog ownership.

00:00:21.420 --> 00:00:25.490 align:middle line:84%
It's called "A Dog
on His Master."

00:00:25.490 --> 00:00:30.680 align:middle line:84%
"As young as I look, I am
growing older faster than he.

00:00:30.680 --> 00:00:34.760 align:middle line:84%
7 to 1 is the ratio
they tend to say.

00:00:34.760 --> 00:00:38.540 align:middle line:84%
Whatever the number, I
will pass him one day

00:00:38.540 --> 00:00:43.040 align:middle line:84%
and take the lead the way I
do on our walks in the woods.

00:00:43.040 --> 00:00:45.950 align:middle line:84%
And if this ever manages
to cross his mind,

00:00:45.950 --> 00:00:48.740 align:middle line:84%
it would be the sweetest
shadow I have ever

00:00:48.740 --> 00:00:52.840 align:middle line:90%
cast on snow or grass."
