•

dew stains

your fingers

with pollen

•

•

•

mouse droppings

in the mismatched

screw bin

•

•

•

out of nowhere

thunderheads

at the ridge line

•

•

•

in the courtyard

for the first time

hens strut about

•

•

•

back of the drawer

a stick of gum

soft and leaking

•

•

•

the red tulips

aren’t really

tulips

•

•

•

spinning on

a strand of web

dandelion seed

•

•

•

the flies that left

with the dogs

here in the room

•

•

•

phantom ant

on my skin

again today

•

•

•

the spiders

decline to give

up the corners

•
