Little rabbit, with soft white fur like fresh fallen snow, Where are you running to?
Big fox, I’m off to the bakers, to the beavers, to the beach by brewery lane, And you aren’t welcome.
Little rabbit, I am as kind as a cool summer wind soothing a fever, Why am I not welcome?
Big fox, with your big jowls and teeth, you will eat me whole Slurp up all my bones.
Little rabbit, never in my life for I love you so You quick footed spirit I cannot catch.
Big fox truly? Truly with your corn eyes, your bone teeth, your sunset fur Do you truly love this little rabbit?

Big fox, where did you run off to? I couldn’t find you in the stream, in the strawberry bush, in the shadows of the sycamore tree.
Little rabbit, I was not far, not far at all. I went to see if the hedgehogs had any bread to spare during this harsh winter.
Big fox, thank you for trying, thank you loving me, Though my fur is falling out, I’m all skin and bones, and I don’t have much energy for anything these days.
Little rabbit, but of course and thank you for still loving me, Despite my yellow teeth, and patchy fur, and growling stomach
Big fox, I will always love you, You promised not to eat me and even though we have little you have yet to break your promise.
Little rabbit, I never will. Big fox, now come lets see if we can find any berries.

Little rabbit, I am sorry for what I must do, But my stomach can’t survive on love alone and this winter has been so cold.
Big fox, you promised to love me forever, You swore it under the eucalyptus tree, under the Everdeen bridge, under the everglowing moon.
Little rabbit, can’t you see? My stomach aches so badly, my body feels so weak, my tongue has not tasted meat in so many months now.
Big fox, eat someone else! You can’t eat me, I'm terribly thin like you and I wouldn’t taste great.
Little rabbit, you will do, you will do. Curse me not for what I do, curse my nature as a fox.
Big fox, so that’s what it is? I am the rabbit and you the fox so I must run and you must chase?
Little rabbit, yes such is our way. We were deluded to think it could be otherwise
