This Old Fox

A lifetime spent chasing hens

in and out of chicken pens

was almost enough to forget,

but this old fox hasn't just yet.

blue sky overhead golden fields

pain i didn't know i still feel

my flower's still waiting upon the moon

think i left it there too soon

. . .

Lost myself for a minute there.

This old fox can get lost in a stare.

Anyway, the sun is going down.

I'll go back to my chickens now.
