The Lonely Hound
Grey and rusty piles full of mouldy objects. A world that emaciated dog occupies and it’s broken up buildings on the edges of the dumpster. Near the building strays fight and scavenge for food whilst their puppies hide and wait for them to return.
A mother dog has to cross a highway, for the second time that day on her way home. Cars and trucks not as abundant as rush hour has passed and most people are home. Some cars and trucks still come hurtling at her like missiles, they all miss fortunately for her puppy.
She chooses to sleep on an open meadow. There settling in the evening sun getting pushed down displaying the only brightness in her world. She hears the owl’s soft hoot as it gets up to start chasing mice. Footsteps, people scurrying up and down the pavement to be home in time for dinner as she lies down knowing no one will come, on to the meadow till morning . She falls asleep whilst the full bright moon shines down on the meadow light an enormous spotlight in the sky.
The same highway is in her path to get to the dumpster where food is waiting. She saw what looked to her the same hurtling cars and trucks, bustling up and down. Setting foot on the highway and then sprinting across, but this is in rush hour. A roaring truck bears down on her mowing her down leaving her body in his wake.
A male with a heart of gold hears her yelping for help. He rushes over the highway, and then he starts pulling and dragging her in every way possible. He finally manages to get her on to the pavement. Mustering her last strength possible and with his help they manage to get to a nearby meadow. He ran off fetching anything comfortable he could find and finally to keep her warm he cuddles with her. They both wake up and see a beautiful orange butterfly going by and in what seemed like a story of black and white now ends with two dogs chasing an orange butterfly over the hills of the meadow.
