Poetry

From his vantage, he has a bird’s eye view / and he can see they are doing their best / to ignore the dark sky

At any given moment / something rare and exact / will have happened here

When she left, / then returned, / a determined look / on her wet face, / he assumed she’d / come to retrieve / something forgotten

The next-to-smallest finger of my left hand, / embedding my ring in its bulging flesh, / a fat tree swallowing a chain-link fence
