Feb 2016
shadowless trees planted in rows
rigid against a newly cloudless sky
blackened leaves adorn the cement mosaic where tufts of grass grow
between each shaded tile
young weeds lean in the mud, for now
no flowers preside over the shrubs
while the still air waits for pollen
the gutters sag
and small birds turn the soil with searching feet
