A Cereal Killer

Maybe a serial killer, the crows cawed to each other. This was agreed upon by the vole and the vole’s mother. I think he’s just a great horned owl, a good guy, I said. However, I did not know all the murderous books that he read. He studied forensics, and he took apart his own pellets. The books he read pushed diabolical ideas down in his gullets. He was a cereal killer that simply could not stop. He devoured all of our Rice Krispies – Snap, Crackle, Pop!
