Winter's Brown Hare

Note unnoticed detail rearranges.
Alert to dark shadows circling Above.
My nose for sharp toothed stink twitches
on this ground. I munch sweetness. Move.

At a flicker of difference in light 
and dark. I know the smell of blood
as my limp bairn lifted into the Bright,
or neck snapped by swift teeth into the wood.

if Above cicles I hide in the Dense.
We look after ouselves. When hot stink comes
I never bounce same way twice. Life is tense.
Snatch sweet green when I can. My skin thrums.

My next words are not true to my space.
You may not see us again in this place,

Why is it so hard to take a good photo of the Moon with my phone? Phones can often take great photos, but why photos of the Moon typically disappointing? The Moon itself and camera design are both part of the answer.
