a fawn and a bobcat baby found huddling together in a room after a forest fire

which goes to prove
all animals
will run together
in a fire
the pyre will often
consume them
to begin
to think of eating
when your life
is clearly on the line
that’s when good sense takes
over
and survival casts a sign
animals cling together
nothing about that’s daft
all that they are doing
is adding to their craft
the fawn and the bobcat
found together cuddling
underneath a chair
clearly shared the combined fear
and felt perfectly happy there
