Everybody cries...


Muzzy, "It's not the same country I grew up in."

Rusty, "Your old. Everything changes including our country."
"You should enjoy your retirement. The country is fine."

Rusty gives a Chesire Cat smile.
He is a black and white cat and loves Halloween.
It is all hallow-eve.

"I found you in a rusty car disk dump."
"You were only a kitten."
"That's why I call you Rusty." Muzzy remarks.

"You chat with me, because you are my familiar."
Rusty said with a Chesire Cat smile.

Muzzy's mother chose to die on Halloween.
She read an ordinary deck of cards.
"Stay away from railway tracks today" she divined.

I was a highschooler.

Muzzy did as his mother asked.
A fat boy was sucked under the bud liner that day.
Muzzy had crossed over the rail tracks by the bridge.
It was a longer way.

Halloween is associated with my mother's death.
She was only 67.
She had limonoid cancer and loss both her breast in her 50's.
But the Parkinson slowed her down.

Muzzy talks to Rusty occasionally.
Rusty died twenty years ago.
Rusty was put down after Patches had died from feline AIDS.
Rusty stopped eating and cried a lot.

Rusty had cancer.

I am still mourning.
I believe my mother was a witch.
But she never said she was.

Just twittering my thumbs.


Will A.I. take my job?


I think so...


Muzzy
