the eyes go back
to being shadows
Tag: insects
unsettled sky—
studying the markings
of bark beetle larvae
spicebush swallowtail
probing the beebalm’s red
forked tongues
the acrid odor
of a stinkbug’s fear
kitchen spider
big fake stare
the caterpillar is tired
of being a caterpillar
locust leafminers
now the leaves get more of the sky
than just sunlight
fallen hornets’ nest
I take a break
from organizing my files
