People are so hardened any more, the pathos doesn't seem to touch them -- bustling past the downed bunny, dead to its predicament --
Yes, this is bright, funny and painful. That was my first reaction, which I've tested under experimental conditions, i.e., I viewed this in the dark before dawn and then again following the first difficult dog walk. People being hardened seems like a generous evaluation. Blindness comes into it somewhere also. Curtis
Maybe the auld body (the one we're doing our best to forget) really knows how this all pans out.
Light and heat and lithium are burning everything away.
The bunny still standing looks suspiciously smug to me.
Eureka! It’s time I took a bath—that should shock the daylights out of me.
