Peaches, my neighbor’s pig,
black and low to the ground,
is visiting again. He nuzzles
close to the normal occupants
of the field, Blackie and Gus
the Guernsey. Peaches,
content to be nosed,
wags and chews until Blackie
makes contact. Aroused,
all three assume a defensive posture
until Peaches leaves
the Fellowship of the Brethren
until tomorrow.
