Gazing at furry paws smacking white cord pulls mesmerizes her. Wooden tassels clunk together, waving to and fro like a tetherball on a playground pole spanked by busy children.
He left his kitten his curious kitten.
Outside snowflakes float downward like the pieces of paper she shred from his exit note and like bits of cotton the kitten pulls from her pillow.
He left his kitten, his curious kitten.
Her hands clasp together. She utters no prayer. Downcast she cannot face her Lord. Her red streaked eyes, accented by ash colored cheeks study playful kitten. Her thoughts clink together as she slaps them around her mind. He left his kitten, his curious kitten. He left. He left her.
