    I once walked in the woods
    I came accross a large flock
    I shot once at the crowd
    and three lives became still
    a fourth bird was struggling
    and i folded its neck

    I once met a kitten
    it was not interested in me
    i stalked it around
    it kept running from me
    I picked up a spoon
    I cornered the cat
    I gave him a thrashing
    then i went back to my toys

    I once caught a lizard
    I held it flat on its back
    I aimed an edge of metal
    and crushed my captives neck
    I had no reason or motive
    I smiled

    that is not me!
    that is not me!
    that is not me!
    but... once... it was

    Interesting work. Most people don't delve into the dark side of their personalities, the way that you do in this poem. Good work! (And don't kill anymore animals; bad karma! ;) JK!)

    Peace and love
