Badger Cubs In The Jungle…
Uncertain.
Yet interested, prying
With heads scanning
The environs of the safety of their sett.
Two cubs shuffled,
Their munching muffled
By the invasive,
Disruptive
Japanese knotweed, growing
About them like fake forestry…
Undaunted.
Yet attentive, scurrying
With tails bobbing,
The caution anchoring them to their sett.
Two cubs scuffled,
Their industry ruffled
By their intrusive,
Obtrusive
Sibling’s presence, gnawing
Nearby, without real enmity…

Two badger cubs vying for scraps of food, although getting in each other’s way…
Fluffy, like cuddly toys of light grey, they collided several times.
The Japanese knotweed really has taken a hold in the copse…
