I am ashamed to admit that my toy Chihuahua, Mina, named after a character in "Dracula," takes me on walks rather than the other way around. Thanks to her, I walked ten thousand steps today. We wrote this senryu together.

Thank you for reviewing, and thank you all who voted for my poem second place in the Senryu contest. Mina and I deeply appreciate it.
