=====================================
Dead Squirrels
In various stages of bitten disarray
dead squirrels lie in the oak leaves
by the side door
the dog brings them there
my brother takes them away.
And then, she, dog, dead - just like that
eyes closed forever to the west northwest
under the dirt and oak leaves also
father and I brought her there
the dead squirrels took her away
