A Badger’s hexastitch

living
together in 
setts, their family homes,
some one hundred years old,
they nuzzle, groom,
and mate

Missed this one, and it’s quite philosophical.
Shabbat Shalom, David!

  it’s interesting that you perceive it as philosophical… how so?

    I saw in it tradition and family, and continuation of life.

  Thanks, Lauren 😀 – I completed a set of 7 for one week’s worth of poems… I’m trying to complete #APoemADay on Twitter for 2021, and somehow I got into doing sets of 7 not so long ago…

    That’s ok with me. Badgers are adorable and much maligned. They deserve more artistic attention.

      did you know there’s a badger emoji? 🦡

        Indeed. Are badgers your favorite animal?

        nope, but the poetic form is called Badger’s hexastitch… so I though I’d play with that 🙂
        
        (the form was created by somebody named – Badger)
