Silk Sheets from Other Colonies

" Silk Sheets from Other Colonies "

by Suzán Jiván

I

Easily reared on bramble leaves
as a slender species with narrow wings
and highly convincing bigger hindwings

II

Shedding legs if seized belonging
to a single genus with front feet
against silk sheets from other colonies

III

Stiffened by bits of detritus
as symbiotic substances
pumped into the young

IV

Suitably intrusive
as pre-chewed food
like eggs glued to the roof

V

Tunneling through into the groups'
droppings like diffusible nutrients...
