What are the wolves really saying

deep in the forested night?

 

Are they baying in wonder

at the last faithful leaf clinging

to the brown bone of a tree?

Perhaps they are sharing the

secret of a mockingbird’s true song.

Their voices may carry the

code of a canine legacy

passed down through the generations.

 

Or maybe they are howling

simply to call attention

to a perigee moon

perched so precariously

on the peak of a fading mountain.
