Kokito

A furor surely was ignited
When somebody from United
Made a bad decision
With a most unpleasant end.

A carrier with dog inside
(The flight attendant notified)
Was placed with luggage which
The family couldn’t comprehend.

The overhead compartment where
Kokito languished had no air
And so he barked, expecting
That he soon would be unpenned.

The owners begged, to no avail.
Kokito's cries did not prevail
And soon the family learned they’d lost
Their sweet and loyal friend.

United gets a new black eye
And not a soul should wonder why
Of all the airlines, this is one
I would not recommend.
