tail o'clock


nature's politics the atmosphere recharged by lightning

fog in motion above the rain cooled pavement 

tail o'clock at 3:30 am the cat's day is just beginning

origami sculpture a yellow butterfly flits past the fabricated steel

red-winged blackbird trilling away the morning rush hour

every spring the silk fluff of cottonwood trees 

mid-may maybe we should keep wearing our masks
