# Spinning Straw Author: charles_they Tags: Bunny, Clean, Folk Tale, Hare, Non-Anthro, Poem, Poetry, Rabbit, farmer, haiku A retelling of a common folk tale in the form of haikus. ### Spinning Straw thatch-roofed farmer's born inside the loft new hare amid golden straw snow fur like fresh milk ladled out in silver bowls over discussion  an adoption—how? son visits daily chores bringing blankets  winter fabric comes uninvited guests—white bandits descend on rooftops  creaking winds ripping collapsing stores then stolen from torn barn ruins no hare harmed inside golden fleece awaits farmer without barn or crops their salvation—how? farmer goes nightly finds fine silks within  needling eyes bite the unseen hand that feeds thread followed to spools  unraveling looms over an old empty wheel spins yarn no longer  fleeced—planting returns a barn to former glory inside full milk bowl.
