suicidal ideation and animal cruelty

“what did you do!?”

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7g3SmZ1V8

i threw the rifle on the ground

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0F19mF4v50

“You could have killed her in one shot”

he moaned

“now she’s in pain”

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAq3AA9LFae

i was trying to save her.

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxwbMETcru

“we’re going to have to find her” said uncle seth

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMIcP9iwIP

we went looking around

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3d1sacdNkK

i found her in the wandering willie

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfaRkDs5mUx

while uncle seth was still looking

somewhere else

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqEFsZjIf42

i didn’t call him over

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zh0xUAtns

i just looked the doe in the eye

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRdsAdtgVW

on the dirt, bleeding

she wasn’t going to recover from what we’d done to her

and when i looked into the eye

i could see from where i was standing

i saw a feeling i recognised

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOkxhBTJTi

maybe it was just me

trying too hard to relate to the animal

maybe i wanted her to be me

when she wasn’t

there was no way i could see someone’s emotion

just by looking at their eyes

but that didn’t stop me from thinking

that doe was me.

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Ml3QVDLmh

and if she was me

but someone else

what should i do?

i was the one with the gun

she was the one without

what would i want me to do in this situation?

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Sd8lUYmU6

the eye looked back at me

quivering

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pCIrc39RP

and i shot her.

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfiuUZ7UMqp

through the eye

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZe42rFxcOA

into the brain

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn75brfrvsY

and she stopped quivering

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIoT7aEkhgK

uncle seth looked over at me

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2Efdtp02r

“oh, you found her,

“good job!”

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjJBJtthYo

now that the eye was gone

i didn’t need to look into it

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmusJxcEx7a

the bullet didn’t come out the other side

so it was still buried somewhere in her brain

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95LZjV3MEg

“next time, leave the face alone”

uncle seth told me

“it’s okay this time, because you didn’t know

“but i usually don’t damage the face when i hunt pretty animals

“because then i can get it taxidermied”

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4YUa3nhKw

i didn’t mind taxidermy myself

(some vegans do)

but all i wanted to do that day was destroy my mirror

people would say that brings bad luck

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjeUfDtnPrd

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡND2f3o91e0

the doe’s other eye was unscratched

when i saw it i flinched

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XzfJwIRih

i’d never properly looked at

dead

before

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGgsKGT9RA

and i saw than that pandora and i weren’t dead at all.

251Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfx5rATfUJ5

this doe was.
