Not as command
or plea
Lot of fog in the trees today
until I eat it up
How much wolf am I not
I stay awake
memorizing paw prints
& then I wake up
Happy to be here
I like your name
when I say it
I’ve never said a bird before
You said wind
& I didn’t run anywhere
Body & wind
& I didn’t run nowhere
I’m too possible to flood
You made that
You made loud of me
As question
How hard can it be
to eat water
Say that again I say I say
& mean it
