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