Unnecessary Noises

The snap of bones breaking the first time, and again, and again.
The sucking sounds of a toilet as newborn kittens are flushed down.
The cries of young girls packed tight like sardines in a van, destination unknown.
The dull thuds of a boot against the delicate ribs of someone's pet.
The clink of spare change dropping into the can of a paralyzed Vet.
The shallow breathing of a pervert watching kiddie porn in the comfort of his darkened room.
The reluctant click click of a hooker's high heels as she works to feed her kids.
The blast of a bullet as it leaves a gun and pierces a cop's heart.
These are noises I can do without.
