As was all that had gone into hiding
And had been smoked out or forced from its burrow
By hunger or excess water
Contained after showing up on the porch
Looking for the mercy of a crumb
And then smelling that it was not going to be
But too late! astonishment had set the net into motion
San Antonio was not extending his intercession
To the coati’s existence or residence
No! to wild things coming from the South
Hence containment then observation
Then return to where the wild things
Are supposed to dwell – away from transnational
Modernity where the amoeba of synthetic reality
Is allowed to expand or shrink at will near the well
