The Kittens of August
The kittens of August are _s cats now and all the leaves have fallen from the two trees
by the creek that were so short a time ago shade,
and now the hunters are sighting in their rifles for:
antelope,
deer,
bear,
elk
and
moose.
I can hear them methodically banging away at
imaginary targets that will soon be made real.
