•

it winds along

the river a train

of thin clouds

•

•

•

the dried rose

looks down on

its green shoots

•

•

•

left on

the paving stones

tufts of snow

•

•

•

you lose

your faith

in paper

•

•

•

yellow bottle cap

sinking in

the gravel

•

•

•

two of

the chickens follow

you back to the house

•

•

•

we gasp

when we see

scorpions on tv

•

•

•

its nail

long and translucent

your injured thumb

•

•

•

the light remains

a moment after

the bulb shatters

•
