more than a touch of regret
where did all this spiral start
an acquaintance or a friend?
the victim points his outstretched finger
while the plaintiff stands accused
does it even matter now it's asked
it was merely a gang of youths
some with more than a sprinkling of promise
and others with their cards marked
through blatant disregard
it all got way out of hand
the same story they'd all been warned of
but they fell victim of the same curiosity that murdered the previous cat
they fell out of touch to all's tethered end
some are still looking for help in the eyes of the blind
