For VileBoris
Sasha Watching
there they are
the feathery ones
two my foods mating
promising another
(three my foods)
if I can wait
do I have a choice
muffled paws behind glass
preventable barrier to life
no arms doesn't stop them
in fan-feathered embrace
I can hear despite the cold glass
a low constant purr
from their all-breasted bodies
I could devour them now
but only I would be unhappy
caught in their ruffling wings
