i went home
and my parents still aren't here
funny, yes
that my parents not being home
has slowly driven me
to the point where
i thought i needed to prove myself
as a strong, fearless son
and maybe they'd come home
so i went outside
and found a stray cat
i sneaked up on it
and gained it's trust
it let me pet it
and i pet it's tail
back
head
before my hands cupped its cheeks
and snapped
it's neck
