If animals could speak,
we would have no need for doctors.
A quick sniff
to the face has nothing to do
with what treat you had before to leaned down to pet them.
When the nostrils pulse inches
from your face
as you mind races with
urban legends of whole faces removed by
crazed canines,
they are not plotting fountains of blood
and tearing apart eyelids like chew toys.
Dogs can smell cancer in out breath.
And each time they hover inches from out open mouths,
they are trying to detect the possible death that
smells like toe nail polish or drain cleaner
on our tongues.
So I wonder how many urban legends would
be crushed if people knew this?
How many women would dangle their children
inches from razor sharp teeth
to breath a little easier?

my mom already dangles me inches from sharp teeth. ... is she not supposed to or something?
Interestingly enough, the Nazis attempted a bunch of endeavors based around the scents one can collect from a human. You...damned...Nazi.
