I tell ya, I remember a time when I was about… I was little, I don’t know… 4, 5 something like that. We had this old dog that had a litter of puppies. And I walked in the bathroom one day and my Mother was standing there, kneeling down… Dog had a litter of about 8, and my Mother was bending over killing each one of these little puppies in the bathtub. I remember I said ‘why?’… She said ‘I’m just killing what I can’t take care of’ - Then my momma said to me, she looked at me and she said ‘I wish I could do that to you’. - Maybe she, maybe she shoulda.
