20| He is so full in himself:
21| how far down the branch to run,
22| how long to jump, when to grab the air
23| and catch in it and turn, and land on branch
24| so gracefully it's like dying, alone
25| and warm in a bed next to a summer window
26| and the [birds singing][]. And on that branch there
27| is the squirrel dancing among the branches
28| and you think *What if he fell?* but he won't
29| because he's a squirrel and that's what
30| they do, [dance][] and never fall. It was erased
31| long ago from the squirrel, even
32| the possibility of falling was erased
33| from his being by the slow inexorable evolution
34| of squirrels, that is why all squirrels
35| are so full in themselves, full in who they are.
