coyote freerunning

pahnts
howl calling breaks
you gotta coyote
hey mister hey mister, you gotta coyote
just down the street
you got any pets
you better bring them in
squirrel rush, break
brush thrash
claws on a trunk
shrub coyote
you wonder about the divots
scaped from spring mud
after piss release
speechless
coyote lookers
back to see if you stay
where you were
coyote meat
maybe a liitle large
let me pack up
coyote meat
marimbas

Fetching, earthy piece. I like the interwoven speech and thoughts connecting with the coyote sightings. I don’t get the ending. Would a coyote skeleton resemble a marimba?

the poem is one of a number of ‘street coyote’ poems and runs on into another in the sequence (of several possible). the soundcloud set has one such following piece, although it is a bit long for a standup reading.
the comment with the link is waiting moderation… it seems, probably because it contains outside links.
