Their Ship Finally Came In

Three Line Conversations

Buster: I have never been so happy to see a spaceship in my entire life.

Tommy: You said it. I can’t wait to get back home, where the two-leg walkers aren’t so crazy.

Buster: And no ridiculous cats!

The opinions expressed are space dog opinions and do not necessarily represent my opinion of cats. It is pretty close on humans, though.

Three Line Conversations were inspired by Haikus. I borrowed the form of three lines, but without the syllable counts. And dialog instead of poetry.
