The Continuation of Our Ancient Planet of Knives or The Lot of the Pig

Holding the diminished being,
its form signaling defeat,
the rescuer, trapped by her circumstances,
was conflicted about what she should do,
bloodless and as a prop from a movie-set,
the tragically terminated creature was carried gently onward.
