You know you’ve watched too much Game of Thrones when you’re walking through the woods, photographing nature, you chance upon a moth on a tree and while your first thought is “Beautiful!” your second thought is “Wow, I can so see Jon Snow or maybe his sister moodily walking the walls of Winterfell wearing a robe like that!” 🙂
But in truth I do find the pattern on this moth’s wings quite inspiring. No fantasy character’s robe in the future but perhaps a scarf? We’ll see …

where do the squirrels go
perhaps inside a tree or beneath a big leaf
maybe underground to huddle in a group
a few brave souls probably stay with faces upturned to the sky
I’m pretty sure that I’ve seen wet squirrels before
but when it rains so steady as it has done today
where do the homeless people go
not into tree not beneath a leaf though I am sure there are a few undergrounds
but in general really I am asking as I see the puddles grow outside
where do the homeless go in the rain
those folks I saw just yesterday in Back Bay
not far from this squirrel
on the streets in the alleys on the benches
some asking for money some fighting and others praying
I don’t know where they go in the rain
but I probably should

One of my favorite books, and later animated movies, of my childhood was Watership Down by Richard Adams. This little fellow, nibbling away in Mount Auburn Cemetery, reminded me of the rabbit Fiver, the nervous little one who could see into the future.
