the book of kat

which is more or less the scripture of the kat
part IV
now it came to pass the days when the doll was very conflicted and at most times, unsettled. one of her lions, in an offer of great respect, bowed her head and left cards at the doll's feet. and so she began to use these cards. playing with them as they were dealt, you understand. one day, however, the clouds in the sky were mixed and air thick and hot, hotter than the street even. the cards never once did lie. so, why would they lie today? as the doll was walking and thinking this and many other things, she could see in the distance a cool breeze blowing. and so when he appeared, kat, in a practically unfathomable display of generosity, gave him the slightest of nods. the nod was returned, but not how she wanted it. now, was it the intention of this bird to insult the doll, or did he just fail to see the generous social gesture? his motives remain unknown. the next morning kat appeared at the foot of the hill, with the sun to her back and demanded to speak with him and to repay the insult. this cool breeze character at first tried to console the doll, only to find the doll was inconsolable. and little did quickdraw breeze know that this little dollybird was only playing possum, due to the fact she was impervious to his bullets. she said; 'i am pervious to your bullets, sugar,' and so he only naturally replied, 'get back to playing possum, dollface.' and so she did and so he did and so it goes and so it goes.
