Rabbit Cemetary

When animals find a place to die,
do they look for a place of comfort?
Or perhaps they look for a place
where no one will see them dead.
Maybe they want to be alone
with themselves, to judge their life,
like so many people do.
Maybe they just want to find a quiet place,
where there are no distractions,
especially others crying for them.
Or is it just instinct?
