Who are you boy, and where have you been?
I ask, but may not want to know.
Your story is certainly sad
(For there you are)
But otherwise uncertain
Given your reputation.
Your fate is there, the writing is on the wall
Scribed in the cruel truth of abuse
And etched in the hang-dog expression on your face
Puzzled with no sure solution; waiting.
Is your flickering light so dimmed
By the unkindness of my kind?

I think you captured the feeling we all had as we stood looking at him. Interesting, I was expecting something different and greener from you, but this has more emotion. Also, interesting photo, indicated some sort of detachment on your part, on the outside, not only looking in, but somehow using. Made the dog a victim in yet another subtle way on one hand, and on another, the blending of your body and the dog's says something, too. It says we all the same.
