A Black Dog Night

A completely black dog was strolling down main street during a total blackout affecting the entire town. Not a single streetlight had been on for hours. As the dog crosses the center of the road a Buick Skylark with two broken headlights speeds towards it, but manages to swerve out of the way just in time.

Down a hill,
Over them I may roam,
But after all my walking,
There’s no place like my own.

Your home.
