Mars Candy Bar

in the distance

with little assistance 

there was the silencing of an owl

that woke a consistent worry

in the  thinking of a cow 

that something persistent was going down 

the night soothing hooting

a head spinning around

there was a fox in the hen

house

 there was a sound

underground

 there was a magnet on the loose

the moon was turning brown

and sheltered from this whisp 

was the sniffing of a hound.

Preserverance has subsistence 

like candy makes one frown

and our injections are reflections

of a course of damning mounds.
