REHABILITATION IN NATURE





The vicious quoll

is a bloodthirsty marsupial.



The water ouzle, an adept bird.



The stellar jay who peeked at you

wondering about your sandwich.



The prickly pine hugging the rock



The grave movement of the river



A turnpike lit itself



The level of grass as it appeared

an hour before it was grass



There may have been something there.



I was in the morning what I was in the morning.



A void of stuff, an eddy of bricks



The light on an orange page



following the trail of a butterfly who is human,



a butterwoman.
