The Bravest Mortal Cat

now that I am deliberate I take too much time … I’m no less considerate, been convicted of any crime … I will be buried. Is that something on which we both can agree? … I’ll probably die lonely but at least you cut me free

your cat came to your rescue from the monster woodland deer … I watched all three of you thinking what are all of these creatures doing here?


your new happiness is guilt-free intact ... with no word or explanation  … no one to help me take the knives out from my back


your cat left me trophies inside my daytime shoe … she gave me props knowing how much we both were so in love with you


I assume you are happy for only once when my sister passed … you wrote me in lieu of dying flowers my fate you have cast


I played your cat's favorite songs the night before her last sleep … at least one of you remembers me me by something nice instead of your last creep 


somebody told me I know where to go

somebody told me I'd be the last to know

sell me down the river. sell me. 

sell me down the river. sell me


the cat is Suzy's cat. Everything else isn't
