#1807 - travels in the death of a tree

 


1807

5.345

11.xii.24

travels in the death of a tree

in cicada days

 

for the Gore Cove Track Series

 

 

a run up

clear the head

 

whose claws?

 

it’s all this time still

snack to beak

wings to catch

 

sky in the least

 

it was this life all reach

 

telling out leaf was

corner for the sun to bud

 

all falling just to be

 

it’s savagery to run the stream

its shadows flighted in the fall

lauded where we are

 

stretch legs

my feet are away with me

 

bin chickens at low tide

 

it’s underneath the ancient webs

we’ll find our sandstone sun
