Lucy Alexander #11 Moss #2 (I seem to have a bit of an interest here...)

Kitten soft green fronds –

is it  tail or paw?

She finds it in loved spaces, too,

looking closely it is

unstrung, raveled free of its eventual overtake

for now clumping happily in between spaces

a great trail of jealousy

or humble builder of microcosm

nine lives later it will glow

as verdant after the  last shower

ears pricked to catch in the light

the rough tongued silk of its filaments.
