untimely death

 

i had a kitten

in my house always protesting

with sharp protestations

of the sharp teeth of her mother

carrying her from place to place

always looking

for better security, more wellness

for her tiny baby

strong assertions of the little

soon ended

with the untimely death

of my kitten

under the paws of a massive

American Mastiff

the pet

of my neighbour
