Dogs and underdogs

The dog at the cafeteria
has now become intelligent,
just like the Japanese crow
and why not ? It's living among 
the country's best minds !
He stands on it's hind legs
and grabs the table leftovers
with his canted jaws.

He's a stray dog, designed
to live on rotting grub.
No one asks if he can
survive food shortages,
weather Madras rains.
No one needs to.

There are other 'dogs'
who were born human.
Even if they're intelligent,
they still live on leftovers.
While they recline with
their bellies tired of hunger,
the stray dogs urinate,
vent their anger at this
cut-throat competition.

Yes, they were born
to a human mother who
perhaps left them in a bush,
and died of starvation.
No one asks if they can
survive food shortages,
weather Madras rains.
No one needs to ?
