While I went about my day

He knows more than me.
Suffers in silence.
I feed him strawberries.
He looks at me.
Those days are gone.

His brain's smaller than mine.
Foolish brute, you stumbled
upon words.
We understand any way that we can.
(but it's always there.)

I'll never hunt deer.
I'll never go gaming.

The eyes scream for life.
Then in weightless serenity,
fall empty.
