•

at the back

of the drawer

the lollipop flattened out

•

•

•

no reason

for the mouse to be

in the mailbox

•

•

•

grains of salt

fall out of

the pen cap

•

•

•

spring grass

the dog’s dark skin

in patches

•

•

•

on the patio

the stray cat doesn’t

bother to be startled

•

•

•

the tall grasses

tangled with the tips

of the willow

•

•

•

I thought

you were in bed

but it’s the cat

•

•

•

admiring

the color of the egg

I drop it

•
