Amuse: Three Things


Three things still baffle me:
a crab, the walk like that of an undecided drunk, tip to left
and then like a call back to its senses, an effort to the right,
a herd of goats or sheep, chewing and giving a familiar stare
one might think they knew me from somewhere,
an ant, wise to stock up for the winter
but hungry enough to die by melting sugar.
