projecting IV: you not heard the news?

projecting IV

The final poem in the Skendong Projecting series uses the fox as a symbol of reputation, scarcity, competition, and social change. A short allegorical reflection on power, survival, and the consequences of too many rivals.

Look at the expression
On that fox’s face.
There’s a cull going down,
You not heard the news?

Reputation plummets,
& mojo disrupted,
In the city, in the suburbs,
Less food, more infighting.

Like a bitter herb
Not for public consumption.
Too many foxes,
You not heard the news?
