Chickadee and Van Gogh's ear
These winter days go one by one
and seldom does much happen;
yesterday my cat murdered and ate
a chickadee on the deck and the blood
and snow mixture left a pattern
similar to what a painting of
Vincent Van Gogh’s severed ear
might look like on fresh linen.
I let the killer inside, she licked
her paws--curled on my lap.
