Grasshopper



Deep green eyes
gazes at me in shock
attached to my leg as he was

what a moment . . . you capture it in every way. i often wonder what passes through the experience of insects when they're confronted with the landscape of our bodies! steven

Good point, Steven! I much guilt, mind you, since the cats seem to be supplementing their diet with the 2" grasshoppers that tease them.

One is allergic and is on veterinarian cat food. I worry that the insects harm her constitution, as well as making her throw up. :-)
