Elucidating Questions

Onyx

Where did you come from?

That’s what you would like to know

Skittering scared

Run run run!

Here and there

I wish I could calm you but I know you

I knew you from the start

Another misfit

Who would end up alone

In someone’s back room

I couldn’t not take you

Knowing the order

Knowing you

Knowing Spinel was saying no

To being on the bottom and she wasn’t interested in spot two

I foresaw fighting

So I brought in a tiny terrified black thing

So afraid

So quiet until

Until she’s not quiet and then the voice I hear coming out of the full grown hamster I mean very small piggie

Is the loudest in the cage by decibels

I do not know where her tiny lungs keep all that sound but loud piggie

Is also so tiny

Time to start showing you world is not so scare

The world is not so scary tiny pig

Mine isn’t anyways

I’m here to love you

It’s all I could find to do while I wait to die

Onyx

You’re safe because you’re my lifeline

You’re spoilt because I love you
