like that camp thief, the gray jay
boldly inviting herself
into my campsite, my grace to enjoy
i bravely venture into your precincts
hoping you will take note of my presence
and drop scraps of manna
or at least, take pleasure
in my being in your vicinity
that you may in your sketchbook
sketch my form and note my color
to later open your guarded tablet
to cross check and tick my name
