rabbit with a lame foot.

white in my back alley,

you run scatterbrained across my headlights.

scatterbrained with your red eyes and your lame foot.

i feel you eating at my heart and

i

can't

help

but

call out at the site of you.

all your cuteness and wildness captured

as you blend into the snow bank.

i want to carry you up in my arms

but your feral fright would keep me from you.
