From Midnight Lantern: New and Selected Poems, by Tess Gallagher
MR. AND MRS. RAT
behind the cottage, stealing in daylight
from the bird feeder. Josie
is not amused. Soon I don't
see them anymore.
Months later I come across
rat poison under
a flower pot and learn
their fate. From bonanza
to the last gate.
