the grass and munch some more, and never say,
I wonder if I ate too much. You drop
ten pounds in winter, trying hard to stay
alive in rain and snow and cold. You move—
no tender grass—to evergreens. You taste
the woody things, the bark. You do not love
this winter forage; still, you would not waste
that mouthful—yellow spruce. You chew and chew
and swallow, chew again. Just yesterday
you saw the robins. In the frozen dew
you yank a blade. This patience is your way.
You jerk awake. Go back to work. No spring.
You chew that meaningless and woody thing.

high above the clouds
this fixing of all things
which contradicts
change, movement, creation
Tuesday you liked the idea
by Sunday you had second thoughts
two separate stories
two different outcomes
you try them out alternatively
and decide to stay
here and now
