The World's Loneliest Sheep
by phoebe kalid
- for fiona, who was stranded for two years on the shore of
the moray firth in scotland.
weatherworn ruminant bleats
after passing boats, the years
thick on her back.
an angry love:
spume casts aspersions
on the idle gorse; rain
begs stone to soften.
there were fields, once—
she remembers. maybe
even a mother.
