She is a brute of an ox.
Daybreak smiles
as soon as I am out
of her sight.
It is like being naked
in a stranger's sight
or anyone's sight
for that matter,
the way the body feels
bruised, the way I feel
like walking out into
the snow & rooting out
a worm so that a bird
does not have to.
Birds need Googlemaps.
Nevermind instinct.
I just want to help
nature & wildlife
before the Surest Death
becomes too certain
of itself, before it catches
an all-too-familiar
glimpse of itself.
