Between Sheep and Coyote by Nadine Sellers

   the animal listens to itself
   from the tower of de Vigny
   to the miner's shack
   thought flows
   from the sister's courtyard
   and gardens in bloom
   words seed themselves
   from one tongue to the other
   from mystique to eclectic
   jump jump sheep
   english french
   lost without one found in the other
   between Mother Supérieure
   and Simone de Beauvoir
   there emerges some sort of Colette
   dressed in knitted words
   the color of verdant memory
   and of brazen sands
