coup in progress

tennis players

point fingers

•

•

•

apparently

the avocado

needs to eaten

•

•

•

the dog who chases

us along the fence

doesn’t bark today

•

•

•

greasy gray

smoke creeps over

dry golden hills

•

•

•

on the succulent

in the dark

a fly glints

•

•

•

the humid closeness

of the porch

thick with roses

•

•

•

the cherries

have shriveled and

no longer stink

•

•

•

thunderheads

become spheres

dissipate

•

•

•

last stack of

hay bales taller

than a building

•

•

•

a clutch of stones

with circular

holes
