A Hole Is To Dig
A hole is to dig
the old one must think
gnarled nails to carpet
maniacally, again
to dig is oneself
into a hole, no matter
a hole is absent
and she’s been here
digging for years
flinging the same stuffed frog
and fake sticks
past her downy tail
like dry dirt, knowing
things are what you make of them
a hole is to extract oneself
with difficulty a rabbit
is an exit to her own
sequestered room
