Answer 28

There is a dog
with eyes of fog
It lays on my bed
looking very dead
but jumps up with glee
when it needs to pee
it runs as fast as lighting
enough to be considered frightening
but when I open the door
and look at the floor
I remember the past
and know it wont last
for this dog eight
and is my only mate
when it's time has come
I will turn to scum

Answer 29

how's that?

Answer 30

*lightning

Answer 31

I really don't get the end part about scum and dog eight and the time has come but besides that I guess it's alright...

Answer 32

meaning the dog is eight years old, and the dog is the guys only friend in life. so when the dog dies he will become "scum" like the bottom of the barrel, sad depressed etc.
