    The Hansel & Gretel Forest 2

    2
    Gretel can’t see Hansel

    the inside is dark
    outside daylight with whooshing cars
    Hansel finally breaks through
    winded, his motor petering out on empty
    a dogs locked jaw hooked on the chain

    little yellow, little beady, closing in

    Gretel at the base of a lone sequoia
    made more monstrous
    by her petite frame
    30 feet down hill asleep

    stop looking grackle
    there are no crumbs here

    Hansel can’t see Gretel

    he is heaving
    a flinging downward a spiral towards her
