inspired by russian minimalists

spindling minces activate trifling rabbits
carefully crawling with hunched steps
edging the nearing of a darkened hole,
a trap. light glimpses through arching night
hovering between bark and black air.
they nudge through summer brush
with fragmented perches on hind legs,
staggering mildly for better views
of darkened figures and frames
too swift to catch wholly.
breeze barks through muck-thick air
allowing a slight crisp to inhale.
crawling with stiffened necks,
they journey onward.
