Hunters Prey
by Maria Massarella
I imagine you dropping
a crumb here and bait there
with your eye in a smile
wondering how things will evolve
and which birds will come to
peck the crumb or which fish
will leap to bite the bait
chewed, and swallowed
once i would fall prey
like a butterfly on air
loving each flutter
you silence me, or maybe
it is i who have silenced me
the compass relentless
tickles my fate along this
path and i savour
a morsel here or there
