It’s like keeping a weasel in the freezer,
this wishing things were different than they are.
What could possible change
when what is most playful, most wild
is put on ice? Let your prayer be living weasel,
running weasel, frolicking and tricky weasel,
slinking weasel, leaping weasel, wriggling
ferocious weasel. The more you wish,
the more the temperature
on your wishes drops.
Weasel, weasel, weasel,
weasel, weasel, weasel, pop.
