Storm at the boathouse...
the toilet level
rises and falls

 

 

 

Stifling:
my nail fungi
in their prime

 

 

 

In the sunny garden
daughter waters
her shadow

 

 

 

Moonless night:
crushing an earwig
with my crutch

 

 

 
some say yes
some say no
cosmos in the rain

 

 

 

Neighbor's windchimes
up through the taste
of my cigarette

 

 

 

Scent of honeysuckle...
coming in on the song
too early
