in the forest
a glimpse of a deer fleeting
through trees and undergrowth
the fleeing muscular
panic the flow
of music the syncopation of branches
snapping the fear and feared there
and gone in a car park a shopping centre
in the x-ray of a bone
stopping somewhere
hidden eyes gleaming
nostrils flaring snorting
breathing a heart beating
decrescendo a violin a
piano
on a patio a desk in an office
an armchair in a place called
home
still birdsong
laughter
the play of light on leaves
voices a choir
acknowledging a stranger
sotto voce in the forest
the head bending
the tongue lapping at water
licking at stone
