John Knight, Visually Impaired Writer and Illustrator. There's not many of us about
Og the Shortsighted.
A cautionary tale of Neolithic man.
Og wanted something to share his cave
A dog would do, big and brave
So Og put out a tempting tasty bite
And it disappeared each and every night
​
Next for Og was to move it inside
Where he could observe but be able to hide
Sadly, Og’s attempt with man’s best friend
Suddenly came to a sticky end.
The neighbors found Og, or what was left of him, and carried him up to the henge where he was ceremoniously buried.
They all agreed that Og was a man ahead of his time, however, they also agreed that the domestication of bears was unlikely to happen ant day soon.
