I Killed A Rat. Poem by Bieze Josphat

I Killed A Rat.

Rating: 1.5


I killed a rat
On the last day of the year.
It was very fat
Its monstrous size I fear.
I used a tennis bat
And not a spear.
Struck directly at its heart
And blood oozed from its ear.

Outside, the cricket
Song filled the dark sphere.
Above me the crescent
Moon sneer.
So, I threw the rat
And it fell not near.
Looked aside and spat
At the spate of murder this year.
