The Porcupine

The Porcupine

Needles drag yarn
Felt deep in hips
All love is careful
The stars’ miracle
Healed by a universe
It's an infection
A first bump

Risen from the earth
Across the Black Hills
Ponderosa pines
Across our hill
Dripping sap sticks
As I 
Chew the bark
I dreamed of
Slapping the porcupine
