My Apologies

I really must apologize
For I have run over your
Cat.

I was running so very
Late and
I had to hurry off to
work.

I didn't know he was resting under my
tire. The shade of my car cooling his
silky fur.

Heart pounding like a drum I started the
car and put it in reverse.
I heard a banshee's screaming
and ran to see what had happened.

Matted fur
Raw meat
Discolored organs protuding from the body.

Your cat is dead
Sorry....
