Little caveman
Crevice climber
Squeeze your sinews
Hiking higher.
Grasp the crannies
Scratch the surface
Twist the tendons
Fingers, fists.
Heave the basket
In your teeth
Raise your muscles
Sculpt relief.
Head o’er heels
Down the stairs
Bow at bottom
To wide stares!

In my lobby hundreds perch:
Facing front they’re all:
blinking, zooming, screeching, preening
Owls: gigantic, small.
Wear a mask; fly a puppet;
Owl my eyes; grasp a cane;
Sparkle glass; pierce a crystal;
Line them up: minor-main!
Sculptures staring, wood eyes glaring;
Wings poised to take flight;
Pull the string and glass wings beat
Fly to soar with raptor might.
