(Trinidad, 2006)
Pumpkin shell
finally rotted
I made dirt!
Little black dog
trotting across the yard behind
black bear cub
The tall trees of myth
beckon the salmon to come
and drop their eggs
Buddha-bellied raccoon
sits comfortably on the couch
eyeing the remote
Soft as the rain that falls
through the redwood branches
my son's warm cheek
yellow hot yellow day
yellow road yellow dusk mountain
lion warning
Twenty years ago
I would have sat in a tree
negotiating blood for sap
Adoption, the magic word
we have a small son
California born
Highway 101
sunandfogandwavesandrainandwhales
and Jerry on the radio
Black and white cows
stand knee deep in mud
next to egrets
