i told 2 that i'm going to leave school early
today.
they laughed.
it's true,
everytime i planned to leave work early,
i'd never succeed.
for the sake of kiki.
this lonliness drives her to madness,
and me coming back to a mess of her madness.
she ate my gardinia bread yesterday,
left the wrapper on the kitchen floor,
played with my elephant toy.
i came back to a guilty-face wag of a tail.
so i was mocked,
before they left,
they came by to check on me.
i'm still there.
i finally left at 5.30pm
came back to another session of guilt.
toilet paper dragged across the floor.
you'd never realise how capable a dog can be,
when left alone.
what will it be tomorrow?
i dare not imagine.
