Today I went to check on my garden and almost stepped on a snek. It rattled its tail on some fallen leaves and made a rattling noise. I could see it wasn't a rattler but the fact that it surprised me and my kitties were coming to see what it was made me a little nervous so I wacked it with a stick until it was dead then chucked it Inna woods. When it was dead and still I saw it was just a rat snake. He was heading towards my bird feeder, probably to get some sun and see if he could snag a shrew or mouse or something that gets the fallen birdseed.

I killed a frenly snek who was just looking for a snack and warming up. Now I have the big sads. I'm sorry Mr. Snek. I didn't want to kill you, I just panicked.

I'm a snek killer. I did something bad. Will nature forgive me?
