102. that rabbit

.

after two months silence

one rabbit ran wildly through

the headlight’s pool, crazed

.

by the thrill of light

against dark winter days, crazed

by the sound of my 

.

truck after months of 

soft skitters, just 

dry branches clicking.

.

I’ve missed the raucous

presence of animals, wild

and separately

.

alive outside of my

cluttered hands’ obsession 

to control: one 

.

reminder that i

remain small to the world,

yet present.

.

which i

believe promises that we could

meet again. 

why not.
