Two deer on the night path ahead, a thirdwalks out into the streetlight hooves audible from here
It's OK, deer, no worriesis what I usually sayand the deer usually stay, like these donibbling on the dark something or other bushes
taking their own sweet time
straying up the shadowed hillsideSlight rustling of leavescan't see them yet know they're there
They can seeand hearwhat I can't see or hear...
It's OK, deer

OK, deer
Two deer on the night path ahead, a third
It's OK, deer, no worries
taking their own sweet time
straying up the shadowed hillside
They can see
It's OK, deer

Joseph Ceravolo: Cat of Eternity
February 25, 1987
About 2 feet from the curb, in the street
a cat was crouched. From afar I thought
it was sniffing, but as I got closer
I knew. It was looking down at the ground,
looking at eternity, breathing,
its head down like a disappointment.
It was only a cat
dirty, black and white, solid
on a wooden beam, not underfed.
Cars swerving left. I picked it up,
this lump of breath.
What is the noble truth of death? Blindness
turned inward to endless seas
as the struggle ebbs far away.
