snail chewing

on an empty snail shell
the autumn ahead

house

held by a swallowtail
with tattered wings

monarch butterfly

finding each other
without mouths

aficionado
of clouds

I forget where I am

a whiff
of the river

the live stream
lonesome hollow

in the road
teach me your kung fu

millipede on the green
bathroom wall
waves passing through
its carpet of feet

seeking shade
within

the first pink sprig
of a snake’s tongue
