Fox

by Adina Gerwin aged 16

The fox is cunning
With piercing eyes that sear your soul
As you try to look away your are stuck
Petrified by those black beady eyes
It’s as if with one look you have crystallized
Made to be completely clear, transparent, naked.
You try to run but your feet remain firmly grounded.
Frozen in place
Forced to be judged by a creature that man has labelled dumb.
