ant5

on the rocks around us–

water splashed

out of the ocean

mumbling by the graveside

the old man

with long hair

broken gate sign

worn words

change direction

on a thin wire

the paper angel

vibrates

floating upriver

the garbage barge

with seagulls

the red undertow

of a slow moving river–

rock shadows

abandoned sneakers

in full moonlight

by the river

frozen pond

an oak leaf

half in half out

dangling

on a telephone line

broken branch

smoke trails

of the incinerator

morning rush hour
