The Dogs
With Mimi by my side,
The streets were clear and peaceful,
When four wild dogs approached,
One Black,
One Baige,
One Orange,
One Mixed Colors,
They tried to attack us,
I was protecting Mimi,
With my arms stretched out,
The Black dog attacked first,
I grabbed it by its neck,
And through it 20 feet,
Breaking its legs and hip,
The Orange one bit my left leg,
I grabbed its collar,
Held it down,
Punching it with my right hand,
Knocking it out,
I ran after the other two
As they ran away,
Mimi and I walked away,
To get help for my left leg,
Which was bleeding badly.
