Little Mouse

I

you are picture darkness and light
   attention holding in little pools
   and tugging with a playful shake
   letting lonely in

you are theatre quiet and loud
   sip strings slick around hearts
   and sweet shrill shrieks smile slowly

little lover of cheese
  nibbling at wheel or hand
  you hide yourself, draped in shadow
  but bright reds and blues adorn your halo
  --fire to announce that which can burn

my beautiful little mouse
