I, a blue jay, circle your driveway
And you, a child beneath my
Calculated swooping wings, stare emptily.
And I, the
Net you peek between
Sweaty fingers, chain link fence
A vehicle of crass but fated feelings-
Your follow-through
Your thoroughfare
Take it: the ball, the eyes, the roaring noise.
Inquisitive yet silent
Such balance becomes our solemn dance
Of hunter and the prey.
I sing to you in looks and hums
And hand on belly you
Eat me up.
