moleskin

does no one care
about all the moles being
skinned
and made into
purses
and things.
my phone case for instance.
what about the moles,
i ask my friend betty who
knows a little bit
of something about
everything.
we need to free the moles.
what kind of a world
are we living in
skinning little animals
like we do.
she laughs.
moleskin is a man
made product
she tells me.
woven cotton, both
fuzzy and soft.
she lifts up her leg to show
me her alligator
shoes.
who needs alligators, though,
right?
