Google Maps can’t find Stoat on a Goat’s Wall / a
prodigious predator, the climb is all huff and bluff /
whatever rocks / the grim reaper speaks to the
bones of such an antelope / soft-pawed albino cookies /
but a stoat wall makes sense / the phonics of rhyme
is another mythology / stoat-on-a-rope/rope-on-a-stoat /
you tell me contemporary genocide is any less likely
