Midday on a streetlight unlit a Hawk the Moon rings when the clouds roll over the smell of broken Earth the Color on my hands the sharp and savory acid scent of Juniper sprung green from Granite a pine cone in the soft, blue alkaline sweet alpine Water termite hieroglyphs drift wood Houses in braille rough under fingers sun bleached tree stump on lake shore stones one root in the water Spring sun snow patches in tree shade the lichen bright lime making patient animals of old growth Cedars Fall from leaf to leaf the paths of ants bent over staring at the Earth where is this poem?
