Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

great twist. Made me uncomfortable. Dead mice are always unpleasant, more so when they’re a mystery
I really liked this. Makes me wonder where the scratches came from... This is a simple, yet captivating haiku that leaves me wanting for more. Great job!
Haha this is perfectly unsettling! Careful—if it’s the tenth life, that cat means business…
