downpour-
a duck waddles away
from the pond
the happy chap

squashing the gypsy moth
in the attic
an old sleeping bag rolled
with childhood

the cows all grazing
one way
up close
to share a dirty joke
-his bad breath

outskirts of town-
the faded clown face
on the phone pole
a couple arguing…
with and against
the wind
