The artificial dividing line between artificially drawn time segments is nigh.
“Neigh!” said the horse, who was a well-known neigh-sayer.
And that is the news. Straight from the horse’s mouth.

Why a Dog Barks, a poem
When a dog hears another dog it responds with a hearty round of reciprocal barking.
This is an unbroken chain, as long as there is a dog to answer the call and response.
It is akin to the human game of telephone.
One message is passed on continuously, dog to dog to dog.
The message starts in China, like the flu.
In the fall one dog barks.
It is heard ’round the world.
It is understood only by dogs.
It is an urgent message, spread urgently.
When it gets to the end, it no longer has any meaning.
