Yes
I want to hold
your five day old goat.
Last week I was alone
and this week
is a small animal
in my bare arms,
sharing urban heat,
both of us refusing
the wild clearings.
If you have nothing
to say, I too can quiet.
Then a camera crew gathers
to catch some explosive spontaneity
that isn’t happening
because it already happened
and keeps happening.
