Fog buries the hill and I don’t know how to mourn a cat I’m quiet but dig I know how to do that with a pick and shovel I dig deep for the dark You cry for your cat and I’ve never cried for a cat Instead I put my hand on your back Think of soil’s nitrification How raccoons will probably dig her up The fog buries us too
