Fate is a fickle thing.
you feel lucky it's on your side
then just as it came
a slip of momentary fear
a fall from60 feet up
to wake on unfamiliar ground
dragging onself to shadowed shelter
waiting death or salvation
time passes
a cat can only do so much for itsself
Luckyonly just began to trust me
feeling secure decided to explore
or was it an attempt to find a way out?
the window was open
the 3 inch ledge beckoned
was it morning or night>
how long did my friend wait
in pain and in fear
wondering about fate
dragged across town
on busses and subways
patiently awaiting respite
only to have help refused
hope shattered, control lost
Lucky decided to tell me how
to end his incredible pain
I cry my rage at fate
