“Elizabeth” poor little soulful puss

Its hard to get one’s head around
this illogical and cruel stuff
a 16 year old neighbour
makes a poor cats life so tough
by tossing her into a fire
and watching as she burns
premeditated murder really
and it so concerns
any thinking individual
and innocent feline
what was going on inside his mind
these young adults clearly consigned
their sanity to darker place
a deluded uncontrollable space
defective in so many ways
its the subnormal ace one plays

here we see a sweet sweet soul
with expectations to fulfil the role
of a loyal defender and kindly friend
imagine the shock that this may send
waves that reverberate through the heart
I mean you wouldn’t know where to start
you gave your love and they gave you back
the most egregious and vile attack

in the fire you burned
the pain intense
you tried to struggle
it made no sense
what could you do
could you get away
you managed somehow
but how you did pay

“Elizabeth” lay there
frantically
smouldering crying out
for she
was terribly burned
all her worst fears
came down to earth
in each stream of tears

left for dead
still burning she
sank in the grass
and passed out a plea
she silently screamed
she was hopeful she
might be saved somehow
or perhaps be free

from this life and this pain
in collapsed state
clearly responsible for her fate
hopeful that she might still pull through
sucking in air the way you do
panting away and trying to rest
trying to do what she thought was best

then they found her
and took me to
the hospital when I met you
the angels they were they were gently souls
and those I met from then on
their roles
were loving and caring and sharing with me
a lot of tenderness they helped me free
the confusion that I held inside
that possibly I took in my stride

that boy, that fiend that sick young creep
I wish they would put him to sleep
I felt like that for a while I did
somehow he had made a bid
to take my life and roast me black
it was the nastiest vile attack

and now I’m recovering its been a while
that fire was hotter how it did rile
me I was angry I was so
I wanted him with me where ere I go
burning hot melting his skin
he was monster with a great big grin
he was touched by a demons breath
or was he bloody high on meth
he stunk like a skunk
it seems to me
that he seldom washed
and looked sickly

I still remember the initial pain
those vile sensations how they did drain
all my spirit and all my light
I could smell my aroma
that dark night
I remember I shuddered I shivered
I shit
I couldn’t control just any bit
of my body I cried I pissed
I know
that all through that night
I wanted so

to leave this earth
to go away
where peace would reign
yes night and day
where I wouldn’t have to ever see
that bastard and what he did to me
