your finger

returns to

the sticky trail

•

•

•

chickens

quick to

the wet grasses

•

•

•

the hour of

the frogs comes

early

•

•

•

one of the eggs

the speckled one

still warm

•

•

•

in the rain

committed

to pigs

•

•

•

one clock

louder about

the time

•

•

•

the hen

nuzzles your cuff

by your boot

•

•

•

beetle

between panes

of glass

•

•

•

the wood table

still cool from

last night

•

•

•

nudged away

by the ducks

the pigs face each other
