look -
white snow speckled by flung
droplets of blood
the red fur of the fox
clamped into the trap, steel
teeth in its foot
to the bone.
and i, i am that pitiful animal,
duly gnawing
through my leg,
look -
i'd rather limp away
under my own power, bleeding
missing a limb
than be caught in your trap.
