This poem is a true story. And it is about life in general, unfortunately. I've been told that this is my "signature" poem.
In the Pet Store I saw a tiny rat, alone, quivering in a cage. “Is he cold?” I asked. “No” said the employee, “just hungry.” “Then why not feed him?” “Oh, there's no point. The snake will be there soon.”

Julie. "Signature poem???" I'm not sure what that means. Seems a might sinister. I love the way you write. This gave me pause for reflection for sure. Love and best wishes to you,
