Day 4 Dream

Zoetropean


spring brought on rabbits
urban rangey
____________________

grey-pink kits
wriggling nested
____________________

swole blooms
heavy w/blue rain

oh! stop      stop`
the dogs
____________________

why can’t I
touch wild things
____________________

bare handed?
I’m afraid
____________________

of babies
and fur
____________________

afraid of
feathers
____________________

____________________

interregnum

between what and

____________________

____________________

in calligraphy

____________________

still see in

my hand 

____________________

a little wounded love

that soft kit

____________________

so naturally

betrayed
