Pig
Crepuscular pig hath poached a sack,
the pouch, a comfort upon it’s back,
it’s back a-hunched and poised to pounce
‘pon ratty feet, and there to trounce
a carrot, some hay, perhaps a leaf,
then off again, this rodentian thief,
to nestle and nuzzle, muzzle and munch
‘til it becomes another’s lunch.
