I should have been singing, passing

the late-bloomed

narcissus,



the flect

vines


of acanthus,



the pale


hederas,

& myrtles,



plants


amorously


littoral.









beak hold

build

a nest

porch and

wind chimes









green

breath of earth

shines

waving

vegetable


on all sides

BUNCOMBE

TURNPIKE









a truck that says




M / U / L / C / H
