The dog ran into the backyard

As the stars lit up the sky

He saw a shadowy figure

The dog waved and said "Hi!"

The figure turned toward him

Its eyes glaring red

A dark voice said, "Who goes there?"

He walked out from the shed

"Let's play! Let's play!" The dog exclaimed

As he started to run

The black figure with white stripes said,

"So you wanna have some fun?"

He lifted his tail and sprayed

A foul, green-glowing gunk

The dog ran away into the night

As he yelled, "Screw you, skunk!"
