The cat on our yard has
smashed and destroyed some of my mother’s plants,
left footprint all across the cars,
even clawed our hands to bleed.
We love him anyway, for,
deep inside, we realize,
he knows not what he does.

I wonder why it’s harder to have the same forgiveness,
and the same understanding,
to fellow humans.
* and to rats, flies, mosquitoes, roaches, ants, and termites :p
