Of...What? Death?
I'll never forget
The first mouse my cat brought home,
Still half alive, yet,
Undeniably more so, dead.
My cat just sat there
Playing with it
As it tried, hopelessly,
To escape.
Eventually, it just gave up. Just
Like that. I was
Paralyzed with fear of...
What? Death? Why?
It's just a mouse, right?
