•

bent to the ground

by the blue jays

sunflowers

•

•

•

never directly

above us

the moon

•

•

•

you knock grass

months old

out of your shoe

•

•

•

we leave

our thumbtacks

on different maps

•

•

•

the cat’s tail

whips against

my cold ankles

•

•

•

it appears

not to change

the apple on the table

•

•

•

the goats

rile up

the frogs

•

•

•

the chickens

know the rain

is coming

•

•

•

I hold your butt

while you screw

the roof

•
