about one thirty in the afternoon
I was extra tired
I guess
I don't usually sleep
ten hours
I went to the bathroom
I sat on the toilet
I scrolled
my phone
kitty sauntered in
I petted him
HOW are you doing kitty
are you feeling okay
he SEEMS fine
BUT
then I'm taking a little bit longer than
HE THINKS
is strictly necessary
he starts
THWACKING his tail
he's giving me
HARD eye contact
& I FEEL
AGGRESSION
pouring off him
BACK AWAY from me kitty
you are becoming volatile and I'm NOT going to FEED you if you attack me
BACK OFF
he MOVES
just beyond the threshold of the door
he KNOWS he has to be careful
the bitch is
SERIOUS
about her silly
DON'T HURT me b*llsh*t
I finish up
and say
OK dude let go get kitty some foods
he BLOCKS my way
I'm uncertain about trying to get around him
SOMETIMES
this leads to CUTTING
I'm trying to FEED you ASSH*LE
if you STOP me
you STOP me
this is YOUR AGENDA
he acquiesces
trondles down the stairs
(continuing)
