Leaving The Hermit Crab Alone By Itself

Rating: 5.0


you see today
a hermit crab
crawling on the
sands

and it sees you
and does not
trust you

and it runs
away from you
and you
chase it

and then it curls
back to
its shell

helpless upon
a defense
of hiding itself
again

you leave it
finally
alone by itself

and perhaps
both of you are
happier

i can sense it
this time
