Jaws
Wagging your tail around you saw something pretty and wanted it. It had feathers that let the sun shine off them reflecting into your eyes.
You chased it wanting the pretty thing
You caught it pouncing the ground in pleasure
Your jaws tighten on it to secure your new catch
But it wasn't yours
And it never was to begin with
You never meant to hurt it
But you did.
You set it down gently, the pleased feeling stopped short with disgust in yourself
Now it's gone, never to fly around and have the light glimmer off it, never to flap about with it's flock again.
Gone forever because you wanted that pretty thing and were so foolish you let it disappear forever never to be free again
Only thing left of it is the blood of guilt on your jaws left to sink in as your jaws did to the pretty thing.
