•

rice scattered

on the smooth

dry sand

•

•

•

sea crows

tell her we

don’t say that

•

•

•

succulents

soft and blue

from the rain

•

•

•

in the courtyard

the jay takes

turns

•

•

•

at the fold

the naughty

words

•

•

•

yarn

that was everywhere

bundled in a bag

•

•

•

a larger dove

shows up

a stick in its mouth

•

•

•

the things

you’re seeing peripherally

they’re messengers

•

•

•

hacking at blackberries

where the swifts

make decisions

•

•

•

a breeze

from the other

half of the year
