Fox Midstream Too

Four dusks later
between a supermarket
and a psychiatric hospital
up from the grassy creekshed
and onto an expanse of lawn
lopes the limber graceful profile
long lithe and lush
of fox at work
though looks at play
with her buoyant fluid stride
and strand of purpose
interlacing the evening worlds
as if there were more than one
and she their arbiter.
