Trickster Mayhem

It’s not just Coyote. In some cultures,
It’s Raven, in others, Fox or Rabbit.
And if all four of those crossed your path
This morning? Well, this world’s always

Menacing, with or without omens,
And tricksters make mostly low-value
Warnings. Take them all lightly,
As lightly as you can, as you would

Talking heads on the digital news.
It doesn’t take a particular sign
To know it’s tricksters everywhere,
And if you’re not lunch you might be one.
