Marsupial of our dreams
So young and curious
But your work is not here
And we had to evict you
Please take no offense
No, really, I understand
I'm sure the large bowl of cat food
Sitting there unguarded
Was a delicacy
Compared to your insect heavy diet
But that is what you do
I know
I read up and you
And it would have ended in tears
You do not have a long life ahead
I can't wish you many years of happiness
It is a sad truth that science doesn't understand
You seem perfectly fine
Roaming and foraging
Deep in the woods
And then you play dead
One last time
And it sticks
So, again, I wish you could stay
You were a lovely guest
Quiet and furtive
Kind to the cats
Easily captured
Though kind of a pig
But the internet said no
It is better this way
I released you in a good part of the forest
Same place I sent your brother yesterday
Sorry for the bumpy car ride
Please don't hurry back
