in a dead poet’s words
with a goose’s lost feather

thirteen geese
one fisherman
& me
*
following a gull’s flight
around the edges of the lake
where is the center of the universe?
*
worm in mouth
a robin hops by; the wind
knocks over my bottle
*
moonset over the pines
the lone buoy
lists to the north
