SPINY prickles hiding in the
HEDGE silently, sneakily
STUNG me, and now, freakily, I’m
BEGINning to feel them
Run!

BEGIN mad escape from my pursuers.
STUNG by nettles, branch lashed,
SPINY thorn pricked; For now: alive.

HEDGE branches, slithers as it
BEGINs its approach–suddenly
STUNG by a crushing heel to the head.

IRON Your own shirt, honey. I
WAIVE it over to you. Now there’s no

WAIVER for the fate that makes our life a
VAPOR, a mist that burns away as the sun rises.
