in a pause a rest a period
perhaps there is the rest
in a smile or a kind word
maybe there lies humanity
or a cat licking his
paws after a tin of tuna
or a dog with a bone
gnawing
or all the ants finding
where that bowl of
sugar is
or a cloud fluffy
when maybe
you chance to look
up
or around
or hear a muse
standing on the edge
of a whiff or
a mushroom
calling silently
or a toad jumping and the cats
play with him.
I hope they don't eat him.
