english gentleman
undone by sirens
metallic scrape
human hurry

yet

in the wild
something ancient returned

oh Huck

there you are

ears tuned
to the birds secret code

a movie about
being beside
a frequency
just soft enough
to remind the world
how to listen

Indie and I trailblaze
to remember

Indie already knows
how to say yes
how to listen forward
how to trust the next step

I don’t guide him
I match him

Simon sits
where sound becomes touch

the bowl sings
and the bench carries it
into paws
into bone
into the quiet architecture of his chest
