wandering

through the hair on my arm
autumn mosquito

Curl of an ache: six haiku

trail

turning dappled salamander

tail

my tormenters

drowning in my tea
such minor sorrows

where they felled it

the paper mill chimney’s last cloud

in the green eyes of an indoor cat

trees with feathers

inchworm

in the afterlife’s pale beauty

in a wilderness of its own corpses

American chestnut

pixie cup lichens

watching where i step

old metal

weathering into a meadow

attention

turning to another world the thump of roadkill

the crack where light comes in

splitting a seed

fast fashion in skimpy yellow

sassafras
