Twenty-five earthworms
in March moonlight
are strung between black
snowbanks by a curb.
A dog comes barking,
barking. Summoned,
his man plucks
the squirming strings
and drops them in a pail
and takes them home
where in his kitchen, neat,
he packs the wriggling clump
in foil between two TV dinners —
turkey, ham and sweets.
"Good for trout,"
he tells the dog and
slams the freezer
shut.
