Hello my name is well known and will never be forgotten



dont focus on that right now because it is my power over you and your disbelief of it that is important



for example i was strolling through a park and noticed a dove with its hatchlings



so i reached up and grabbed it

and i stroked it , caressing ever feather

then i finally reached for a talon and with a little pressure... snap .. its broken



not a drastic wound , it just make  the bird walk a little gimpy



then i start plucking feathers from its head



next i shatter its left wing and strip it of any feathers. While it chirps in agony , its hatchling watch in fear



then i set it back in its next and come back tomorrow



i find the gruesome bird again and pick it up



This time i stroke down to its legs

and with a little pressure... snap... snap..

no more walking



i being to slowly puck every feather

one by one

but leaving the right wing completly untouched



i clip its singing chords and break its beak shut



i lay it down in the nest surrouned by its hatchling

with only the perfectg wing to remind them of what once was



i wrap my hand around the birds neck squeezing tighter and tighter ... but then i let go and walk away

i mark another tally on my wrist and let time do the rest.



hello my name is cancer
