the fawn

Look. Stay still.
Long-lashed green orbs
Unblinking
Cool thin air mirrors smoky breath
They meet, intertwine
Disappear
Like the home she once knew
Cut by cable wire
This home, dark brown
Like her skin, she tries to
Blend in,
Among the litter, me,
On my visit to the past
Look. Stay still.
Crack. She disappears.
