it seems the bobcat and i

frequent the same woods

i see the trunks scarred

by his claws as he sharpens

no doubt he sees me

from a limb as i pass by

i have heard him at night

i have heard the fawn scream 

in terror, and i have heard

the crashing of the two through

the woods, all at night

sharp claws, screams of terror

every night the bobcat hunts

every day i walk the same woods
