We look both ways
at the end of the road,
the well-honed edge
of commerce and convenience,
trucks and traffic
across the bridge—
river without water.
In their own world,
some deer forget:
quick scramble of hooves,
a clatter slipping
on concrete and asphalt.
We look both ways
wanting wild cover
and shade, leave
great hearts behind
to trespass
into an urgent world.







Domesticated, we die / In the wild, we expire . . .
