Death of 烏龜


烏龜 (Wugui) was my pet turtle. Notice the past tense. I saved him from from certain death at a market. Little did I know, death was certain whether I saved him or not. I don't know, but my conscience is a little heavy. Maybe I didn't feed him the right food? But, at least he wasn't food.

Wugui. I miss you.
In my blue dreams, I still see
Your tiny green shell.

  1. If you think these pictures were taken postmortem, you're right.

  2. Josephine, Maybe you should think twice before feeding your children...
