the literary return of the rat
Journal Entry: Fri Dec 1, 2006, 3:00 PM
A trap I set for the mouse living in the wall by my stove was full this afternoon. Of course, I found him after a prolonged time from my apartment so there was also a respectably broad smell, filling up the space between a nook under my cabinets and the kitchen sink, growing for me. It was one of those slow odors that is so bloated with fragrance it takes a moment for your nostrils to gulp in every sour corner of the cloud. An aroma with all the laziness of natural gas, pregnant with a shovel full of crunched guts, an open wound spilling spine and innards, clogged by the wet stench of an anal gland (involuntarily discharged during death). I put on two oven mittens and picked the little guy up. If I'd known it was a mouse like him I wouldn't have done it. He could have hung out around the place, a regular. Two weeks ago I had baited the trap and left it unarmed so he could come out and enjoy a dollop of peanut butter and bacon fat. One glut with the guillotine, imparting the gift of false security, before riding his little pine plank into a trash bag today. At least now I don't have to get a cat.
I could never afford a trap big enough to catch one of those.

This little shit would not let off. I mean I hit and scrunched and pounded those socks and this piece of lint clung on for dear fucking life.
Lint, of all things.

Mere opinions, in fact, were as likely to govern people's actions as hard evidence, and were subject to sudden reversals as hard evidence could never be.
