John Knight, Visually Impaired Writer and Illustrator. There's not many of us about
Og the Clumsy.
A tale from the paleolithic , when men
were men
​
The evening chill froze the air
As the wolf slipped silent from his lair
He raised his snout, a coming storm
But he knew a place, safe and warm
He crept upon his prey from behind
One eyed Og, who he knew was blind
​
Now, a choice…
Kill the man and steal his meat
Or lay down quietly at his feet
Og stoked the fire and turned the spit
Cut off some meat but…dropped a bit
Wolf, dropped meat, you know how it ends
Og and the wolf became best friends
​
After some time, Og decided that the wolf needed a name. Due to very limited vocabulary he called him Dog, and that, as they say, is how it all started.
