proud buck
froze, close,
heart in my
cross hairs
I squeeze
the trigger
nothing
happens
except birdsong
as if
they know,
a doe was saved
from widowhood
by a mystic
misfire

*a two minute poem--two minute poem has no guidelines other than it must be written in 2 minutes or less--editing is permitted, but no words may be added after the initial 2 minutes: "inspired" by my walk in the freezing drizzle a year ago today
