Breaking Bud

March 2015









Blackberry

Half-vulture-eaten carp on the banks of The Creek
That carp's ribs and empty insides

Raccoon on the way to being eaten by vultures

Fossils are good 







.Five lambs born within two and a half weeks
 


Ice in the sheep's water bucket 
Winter algae


Same red-shoulder hawks return to the nest


Night catches us before the brush fire
beneath the cliff can dwindle down 

Evening sky reflecting in the bottom of a blue
ceramic mug of wine
