tail flicks + hush

we had fishes then
sometime later
at the end of the garden
when the hamsters died
i'm not sure why
they didn't do much
just some swirls in the water
tail flicks and some hush
and none of us bothered
and none of us tried
and nothing much changed
and nothing else died
they didn't much love us
we didn't much care
but i remember the pond
it was good to cry there,
instead

They didn't much love us
We didn't much care.

Too true of most things, isn't it?
Yet still we live

My goodness, what emotion, and vision, that pond had more than just fish it had purpose. Beautifully written and I felt a tear too by the time I'd read it all. 💙
