Antelope Poem by Andy Amah

Words on chopped leafs
There he comes
In faint steps

Oh, he dances
Whenever uncertain steps plays
He staggers but in fear

No, in fear of double footed creatures
He wonders, who must that be
His mind says the forest spirits

Nevermind, he looks around
Bunnies are all gone out
For food and endless chasing

Come with us
Remember what they said
He laughs,

In faint steps
Into thickened and heartened
He moves a little further

He is never a proud one
But at one more sight
His inquisitiveness see's fear


He laughs, his bones licker
No one more look or search
He drags off into his tiny paths.
