Elucidating Questions

Once upon a time there was a cat

He said he had an older sister

But she had disappeared

He said he was abused by his father

He said he was addicted to everything he could find

He said

Never do what I’ve done

Once upon a time there was a sheep

Fish

Rabbit

Thing

Who took the cat and gave him lots of love

They’d lie for hours just talking

He’d make sure her father wasn’t too close

He hated father

Then one night in the middle of a tiny room she cried and said

I don’t want to anymore

You do it

And then they found out

Who the cat’s sister and father were

With hands entwined walking forward she would find exactly what she should not

And the cat said

I’m still addicted to it

She thought this was ridiculous

So she got them addicted to alcohol, marijuana, and tobacco

And then she found something interesting

I’m still addicted

Said the cat

I’m counting on it

Said the aquatic rabbit sheep.
