Homeland Security
Two, then five electrified Chihuahuas
boil out of the porch’s shade,
snarling so far back in their throats
they choke on their own sound,
jitter stiff-legged trying to get at us
who dared stop to look at dozing hens
through Santa Barbara noon’s dry heat.
No teeth in the oldest one’s belled mouth.
