Ice age raccoon
what would you say?
Teeth barred as if to for a fight, 
did you fight death?
The death that came with no 
claws but the wind.
Ice age raccoon thawing from the snow,
you look so,
dead.
Hair matted, rolled over, toes missing.
Ice age raccoon, what would you say?
ìThe winter was too long.î
