The rabbit’s foot

.

Her pale grey bunny rabbit

slippers, now grotesquely

deformed by his size twelve

feet, were all that was left

of their relationship.

But, it wasn’t until he lay

on the floor and reached for

the slipper which had found

its way beneath the bed, that

he saw the rabbit’s squished,

tormented, lopsided face and

knew it was his fault.
