Squirrel

Hunting, stalking
Silent anticipation
Waiting, watching
Obsessive fixation
Remember last time
In the yard
The intruder got away
Not again
This time we win
Today I saw a squirrel
and I named it Peanut.
I don't know why:
he just looked like a Peanut,
as in the name and not the food.
He was squat and round,
grey whiskers poking out across
Rowdy
Free and fluffy
Naughty little nuisance
Blissfully bounding through the boughs
Spry squirrels
I am ADHD
Can't you see
I am here
I am weird
I am loud
I am proud
I have racing thoughts
I have lots and lots
I talk and talk
I walk and walk
I can't sit still
