PawPaw Possumble

I have never in my life let an animal watch me pee. I must confess, at any given time, I feel more connected with animals then i ever did with my very own species..I had to state that obvious. Anyway as I was saying, I have never let an animal stand stare watch me contemplate on my pot. Last night while i was tryin to focus the zzz's outta my block I turned to my right to find the remains of what we call the 'white scroll', I saw a possum stare back at me!
A possum indeed. The last I'd heard of possums was in some story my mom had read to me from my childcrafts and then 20 years later I found one staring the livin daylights outta me.
What we see here are two strangers trying to reassure each other of each other. I'm sure pawpaw (that's his name because he had an extra paw on his hind feet...yes he did, I'm not/was deluded)was just a little lost stumbling about with his extra paw trying to figure a way out. He chose to stand and stare maybe because(there could be many a possibilities, ive narrowed down two)
(a)He has never seen a human on a pot, peeing
(b)He wasn't absolutely sure what to do next
If pawpaw was a smart cherry he'd roam about, do his thing and would not embarrass me by standing still and watching!. But he was a little silly really. He chose fear over his actions otherwise which would make him freeez in fear or wade through the bathroom floor, scampering about like I was gonna beat him with my bathroom broom!. We human's are capable of instilling fear into anything that moves and is not our clone. It's not a power it's a failure to understand the connect that connects our being to the harmless pure truth of nature. The only truth we cannot face or chose to ignore, the pure passionate true unconditional love we will ever recieve from the four legged. We are too selfish to understand this in theory because we desire simpler things in life!. Truth be told, this is as simple as it can get and if you are this side of the horizon you would feel the underated joy too. Yes you would.
From humphrey* to pawpaw it's just a seesaw of true love and honest good faith!
Oh wait i didn't finish pawpaw's story. Well I fed him stale bread while he scratched and nibbled on me like a little restless kitten and then i left him out into the wild where he belongs. Well pawsiii, mi loo su loo!
