a tranquil night sky
is now being stalked by lightning –
poking its wild side

Peonies
as the scent of lilacs dominated the space
the peonies were still being fiddled with by ants whose only purpose was to gorge
but in time, they did come into their own
they always do

Lately, I’ve found myself wondering if animals in the wild behave as we do. I watch the nature show, and I don’t know. I often feel bad for the prey being chased. I yell at them to run!
But as that fails and prey becomes dinner and I see how many of them this one ‘kill’ feeds. I then have to remind myself that they too have to eat.
As my thoughts rounds back to us humans, I wonder – what is our excuse?
pummeling of hope –
out and about while being black
taunts mortality
