roosters crow, birds chirp -
all unseen.

barbed-wire strand:
a two-way ant highway,
around the pasture.

Chimpanzee [Lyric Poem]
Our closest relative, the Chimpanzee
Lacks our affinity to be fancy.
To them we are but pant-wearing buffoons
Who've lost all freedom to shoot the moon.

grasshoppers ping forward,
plink - plink - CRUNCH - plink...

sprints out -- tremor-triggered --
miffed to see hiker.

Blue Sheep [Lyric Poem]
The Blue Sheep must be ever so sad:
For of all the colors in which its clad --
None is blue; there're shades of brown, black, and white,
But blue must be symbolic, if judged by sight.

brisk morn dragonfly:
too cold to move, or dead?
unmoved by footfall.

Swamp Deer [Lyric Poem]
Everyday at an appointed hour
the Swamp Deer takes an anti-shower.
It hooks its antlers into the muck,
and with a twist and shake mud is chucked
upward, where it rains down on the beast.
It's stinky and slimy, but it's cool, at least.

Cheetah [Lyric Poem]
A Cheetah can beat a Porsche to a hundred.
(Imagine the tumble if a clumsy one blundered.)
In fact, Cheetah's are so very, very fast
that your future is way, way back in its past.
