TAYVE NEESE

​SAINT JULIAN PRESS POET


RADIOACTIVE BOARS ARE ROAMING
​AROUND GERMANY
                        
                     Smithsonian Magazine, Sept 2, 2014
 
 
Plowing field with snout, they sniff out truffle, 
root, leave poisonous dark bristles 
 
on twigs. Tusks, over generations,
shorten for lack of need.
 
No arrows threaten ribs, no scent 
of hunters chasing sows to bleed 
 
them from their throats. 
Litters are born, each small fetus 
 
misshapen before birth, 
ill formed bones, or lacking hoof.
 
Our disaster−their savior from blade,
our uranium−allowing sounder's growth.
