Tattered edge.
Hacked leylandii flicker
needle-teeth and sequins.
When foxes cry
I dream - my rag doll baby.
When foxes cry, I hold her tight -
pinch together seams.
Try to feed her. Bleed instead. Flood
her small, sharp mouth with red -
then watch the blood soak in.
When foxes cry, she screams.
When foxes cry
I dream - my rag doll baby.
