By the rat

Be glad that I am still here

you should love my prescence

why wouldn't you?

 

I protect your back

that is, when you're looking

when you don't look, I merely have a little fun.

 

You have no reason to hate me

humans and their petty grudges

I did that a while ago, get over it!

 

Why do you not like that I keep an eye on you?

I bring my friends with me for backup

you know, in case anything goes wrong.

 

For goodness sake, I can't believe you told the public about my cravings

humans are just too appetizing sometimes, you know?

It was just paint, calm down.

 

I'll be back

with more of my friends

then you'll see who's the main character now...

  • Puzzled

    When we ask questions

    we get answers

    but they don't answer our questions

    they leave us hanging

    and they are the answers to a different question.

    If I try to clarify

    it gets worse

  • I'm not crazy

    Their names were mine

    I took care of them

    they are my closest confidants

    and forever will be

  • Sick

    I'm sick

    nothing to do about it

    let me go home

    it can't be the end of the world if I'm not there for an afternoon, can it?

    I'm contagious

    everyone else would get whatever the heck I have

    you don't want this
