Okay, you caught me out with this one. Which you shouldn't have really - I wrote something very similar concerning a pig. But you had me properly lulled with the lead in. I even began to think that this wasn't fiction because it reads more like an account of something that happened to you. So you weave a good spell. Flawless grammatically, of course, but a very pleasant style, conversational, even confidential. Which explains why I began to wonder whether it was actual personal experience. I see now that it was written to a Cramp prompt, which should have told me that it was fiction. But I think my observation is useful even so. It shows how naturally you write, after all, and that has to be a compliment. Also, I read quite a few of your poems, especially the shorter ones. You're good at that. Beholden
