NaPoWriMo: Day 14




the world ended, humanity had gone
the survivors changed too much
and society melted away to just memories and burnt photographs

Buildings standing empty save for pets.
domestication, a short-term contract.
With once dimmed instincts growing sharp again.
The towns and cities becoming theirs.

Cats, who had forgotten the least, adapted well.
Killing for food is the same as killing for gifts.
Wearing collars given by dead owners, sheltering in their crumbling houses.


The last two subjects my internet buddies suggested were the apocalypse and cats. I used both for some reason.
