cutting
the red bell pepper . . .
cathedral chambers

fireworks
I close my eyes
for a second look

porch breeze
a fluff of puppy hair
into the pea hulls

Nina Wicker

 

the eyes
of a scarecrow
harvest lightning

Michael McClintock

 

squatter camp
the witchdoctor's bones rattle
with a passing train

camping out–
the flashlight beam
lost among stars

rises over the fence

from the potato field
