Ravens scream their loss
and start to laugh
summer never lasting

spins

and takes a breath
tries handholds on slight hips
a fluid
sudden rush of light
weary as

the woman
running
wild

as I sit here vanishing
lightning’s far-off tumblers click
as the rain loosens a shingle
I walk out with thunder

green

tense

wet
