She (for Mlady)
She pads on silent paws that
end feather-light leg bones
attached with sleek tendons
and muscles, housed
in long, cottony-soft fur.
She moves effortlessly
this mute huntress, from
screened door to screened door
watching chipmunks scurry,
bright-striped, brown-patched,
along their chipmunk paths.

Aww, Mlady, she’s so sweet! šāā¬

I don’t see it as a community as much as it is billboards with agendas. It grows tedious.
