Its three am and the howling of a distant battle wakes me. I sit up and rub my eyes. As I come back to this world I realized the battle I in the room with me. Growling and screaming, they argue over food and water. I turn on the lights as they tumble again. Clumps of fur float around as their screams echo through the halls of my quiet house. Behind me, my moms door creaks open. I turn, half asleep. "Mom, the cats are fighting again."

&quot;Imperfection is beauty. Madness is genius. And its better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring. And when it comes down to it, I let them think what they want. If they care enough to bother with what I do, I&#039;m already better than them.&quot;
