The many-legged eaters
of desire, they slink and clatter
alight and prowl
on jungle branches
snap their jaws and clack
their pincers, feral and unsated
gnashing their greed against
lethal, tree-strangling vines,
against the vicious intelligence
of those chimpanzees that
would howl and glare at the smallest one
cliquing him out of their food,
leaving him for the animals.
