<\/p>\n
He says,
\u201cMy frisky wet wood
always serves up
fancy moves
and I love calling you
to my beam
for daily Olympics.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
He says,
\u201cI know you well.
Every day you come.
You choose me over others
even though
slimes happen.
I don\u2019t mean
to slide your feet
or snap your cage
or snag your lung.
I rejoice in your
balances and cool
ways to dance me
up and down.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
My surfaces tremble
when you sideways
topple into muskegs
and boggy mixtures.
Wear heels with spikes.
I don\u2019t mind
how you hold me
tight.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Once I watched your tall
Rhodesian Ridgeback
walk you down muddy
and post-tumble,
on half a lung
in the dark
of late November.
I saw that you had
no desire to use
your phone to call
a carry-out service.
You knew the big dog
would help you descend
then you\u2019d drive to the ER.
Have the ribs checked.
Make an incision.
Insert a vacuum tube.
Re-inflate the lung.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
See you soon
for more
good steps.
Love, Mr. Dan Moller.\u201d<\/p>\n
