Canis Major
The great Overdog 
That heavenly beast 
With a star in one eye 
Gives a leap in the east. 
He dances upright 
All the way to the west 
And never once drops 
On his forefeet to rest. 
I’m a poor underdog, 
But to-night I will bark 
With the great Overdog 
That romps through the dark. 
        Robert Frost, (1928)
