A Victim's Tail of A Delightful Day by Kylash Ganesh

Wag, Wag, Wag, I wiggle my golden tail,

Wrestling siblings with my paws of fury.

Confined to my pen, like a crook in jail

Hopefully, I do not face the jury.

Yet, one by one, my siblings go away.

Strangers come in, deciding who to choose

Taggéd by collars, they’re taken each day.

I’m left, take me, I have nothing to lose.

A family enters, my time is done.

I conceal my sorrow, muster my strength,

And wag my tail. They pick me, the last one

My short journey has endured its great length.

I begin a new life, in a new den

But I’ll always miss what I had back then.
