dashing from red-orange

doe dashing down my hill

moments later, a large, red

dog-like creature, orange-red

with broad face and shoulders

and long moments later

a second orange-red creature

as dog-like as the first

of unrecognized breed

and unfamiliar color

a pair of dogs in the neighborhood

that i do not know?

wild creatures that i’ve never heard of?

my only hope is that the doe

is swift and finds shelter
