•

you include

a tomato

as a distraction

•

•

•

under the daffodils

the tulips

about to unfurl

•

•

•

stuck between the spoon

and a spoonful of honey

an ant

•

•

•

under a shopping cart

a blackbird bathes

in a puddle

•

•

•

I feel it

when I breathe

the green river

•

•

•

she says I like

angels just not

kings

•

•

•

you listen to

a sandwich being made

in another room

•

•

•

the leaves

tattooed on her back

blurred by years

•
