today's lunch visits were punctuated
with territory squabbles
the larger stepping in front of the other
(kicked from behind)
moving off and back moments later
in front of a still larger this time
(body checked into the door
before both were bustled out
for everybody's safety)
I love to be loved fiercely,
albeit selfishly and thoughtlessly, too,
and oh, my young lions,
there are days I also
feel trapped
and powerless
