start with where you are

King Rd Walk, Susquehanna County, PA

 

wishing to picture

 

make a list

make meadows

 

of grazing

leaf fall

 

look where

and the grass over

up to machine

 

barnscape

woods by

 

old tyres in a paddock ripe

 

sunflower city

bale henge

 

field of corn

silage beside

 

top the hill

they’re pumping out to be smoke later

 

a cloud’s eclipse

 

oat? is it?

 

fluff tufted

trill thereof

 

roadside sumac

shadows of fences fall

 

tiny and tart

apples left from time

to tell the tree

 

from stillness

and over the hill’s horizon

 

mud track

the barking away off

to angle

 

walking backwards up a hill

hips thank

 

years to fall

 

not a thing runs by

 

so many manage a standing death

accompanied

by vine, by deep

wasp, fungus, bee

 

this little fellow

goes into the tree
