Cat S Eye

The Cat’s Eye nebula lost its luster just like us, a two star cluster Worms showed up silently as they are wont to do, and gradually until their feasting decimated us Two precious dogs lost their fight and I’m drowning in the deluge as the cherished rabbit tried to swim away lying on his side, calling out for his mother Broken heart would pull out its pacemaker it would stop beating if given its choice too great the loss, human and animal voice The culmination of a life camouflaged as one well lived while underneath is the truth and the fatal undertow Simultaneously for another life is just beginning though forces cause a late bloomer What lies before him into summer ahead strong solid strides along the shore another fading into autumn, looking back caught offshore in the undertow begging for mercy
