It Killed the Cat

Questions should be questioned

Eating at me with ferocity

Slowly corroding my mind

Until the answer I find.

Creating between me and my intellect, animosity.

"You can never ask too many questions!" they say

But the cat, curiosity did slay.

Therefore, it is apparent that it is a monstrosity.

Author's Note

Curiosity, to be praised or shunned?

The conclusion is great and written brilliantly. You've done a great job with the poem. I love the rhyming scheme and the flow. An amazing poem, on the whole! :)

I love cats, so I may be a bit biased. I also enjoy reading and writing about death and nihilist approaches to it, so I'm definitely biased. You should consider writing more about killing cats, you have a nab for it :D

Haha, thank you... I guess :)
