Animals Fair
Sometimes
I think
I’d like to live
In the world of
Mole
Waiting on Toad
Or another of the animal
Fabulae
But then I’d have to become a
Beastie
I suppose
Something small
Like a civet
Still with
Tooth and claw
Or something that imposes
Like a
Heffalump
With girth
And myth
To help

Toad of Toad Hall drove a shiny red sportscar and wrecked it. He drove several more such cars and wrecked them all. (And faced jail time, kids.)

The way a building
Comes together
With everything that fastens
Nails
Glue
Screws and bolts
Certain guns and drills
That drive
The music
And a harmony
Until
Complete

I don’t mean
Cathedrals built
To music
Who knows about that
x
I mean the real noises
We provide
The voices of machines
With our own
Collaborations

Metaphor
Or three-
Dimensional
The houses goes up
The people
Or some others
If it’s a shelter for
Some animals
Live
Inside
x
There is a game
With fingers playing nicely
That emblemize
A steeple
When inside the church
The people
x
Join
In building
All good ways
To shelter
All creation
Needing cover
