The air was pregnant with a pungent,
thickness that hung like a dark
cloud of humidity. With every succulent
inhalation, the poison spread
until Death claimed every last one of them.
Was it the clouds? Or what they carried? Death…lightning…wind…we don’t know life without death…is that not so? You did bring to reality very nicely. Thanks for sharing your inspiration.

Thank you! I suppose in a way the clouds and what was carried in them was the toxic part. Exactly what that toxin is, is another question I leave to readers to decide. 😊
Yes, sorry. I wrote a quick reply cause a foul odor crept into the room as I read your work. But it was just one of the kittens went to the potty. Yes, I loved it.
