"How quickly you forget to be kind", said the garden snail, "In the time it takes to remove my gaze you have replaced kindness with self pity."

a silent prayer moves
across a green field
as creatures bow
to an ancient voice

some on wings
at the speed of light,
some earthbound
slowly measuring time,
perfecting their
unique dance

All of a sudden, Dustbunny remembered Angela. She was someone he had known many years past, it must have been a song on the radio. He remembered her long, thin, pale arms. He wondered if she was still alive? Probably not. He remembered her brown eyes and it made him sad that he supplied her the poison that removed their luster. He was sad for a bit, then he made a resolution to do something kind before the day was done.
