Mercy
by Joy Sullivan
Once, we were grilling zucchini
from the garden. It was summertime
and I was about to leave you.
A praying mantis landed on the grill.
He was bright and beautiful
even as he fizzled and I burned
all my fingertips trying to save him.
You can't tell when an insect is in pain
but he must have been and you put him
in the grass so softly
where I found and stomped him.
And I think it surprised us
what we each defined as mercy.
