barn party

breeze and music passing
through every knothole

the cat’s bowl

under the ofrenda
the sound of teeth

trees with feathers

no one’s watching

one garlic head’s  green tongue

a beggar’s friendliness worth
every penny

the darkness giving up
its sassafras

the scarab remembering
its wings

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

in the wilderness
of a broom

harbors the sun
winter aconites

mud dauber nests
