Only a Pet

Only a Pet. It was the day of 9/11, distressed I thought the world was coming to an end and feared what USA would do in response? I took my beloved dog Bambi out for a walk, at a big parking lot I let her off the lead, she liked being rid of me for a little while. There was a hole in the fence were trains passed, jumped through it although she was quite elderly, a train came…no more dog. Put her in a black bin liner, so much blood and she looked so small. Drove to where she was born dug a hole and the heavens cried.
