CHAD FORET<br />
Uncle opens shoebox,<br />
empties two mantises<br />
onto a rusted tailgate.<br />
We prop ourselves<br />
against the scrap,<br />
watch them try<br />
to eat each other,<br />
sweating in the shade.<br />
Celery, lemon & onion<br />
nod & disappear.<br />
A crawfish escaped<br />
& navigates blades<br />
of Bermuda grass.<br />
Circling, insects<br />
sound like eyes<br />
being wiped<br />
in the dark.<br />
