The Work of a Fox

Brush across the snow
No need for nine
One will do

Parallel
Predatory
Omnivore to you

Something mystical
Superhuman
In a fox

And for what
For outwitting
Humans now and then?

Foxes are hidden
Burrowed meanings
Attend well

To find them
Counter crafters
Poets and women

Noblemen hunt them
Farmers dread them
You’ll know when
