Red-tailed Rescue

Red-tailed Rescue 


Let's pretend Covid
cannot touch me here.

In my imagination 
there are no mandates, 

or quarantines,  
or masks. 

It’s a place filled with 
delightful and dangerous 

thoughts— 

a hawk of poor vision,
a deep and chilling well, 
an enemy of fright, 

hunted through the night.
