hunger moon--
the deer's neck stretched to reach
the last tree bark

They've gotten so overwhelmingly numerous here, sharpshooters had to be hired around a watershed to limit their numbers.

Your "deer's perspective" is very sweet.

Well captured, Nora! These are hard times for animals.

I literally feel the deer's neck stretching in that second line.

Wonderful use of wording bringing 'stretched' and 'to reach' together.

all my best,
