To Yesterday's Squirrel (and Other Letters)

To the Cat Burglar,

I can't believe you
took my fucking tail.

Of all the stunts
cats have pulled--
messing with my food,
eating a bird friend
or two...
This might be
a new low.

This morning, I fell
off of a fence
I had no way to balance.

I blame you.
How am I supposed to
do anything?
Terrorize the neighbor's dogs,
provide for my children,
avoid getting eaten...

My life is over.
Thanks, asshole.
