Ten Haiku
bundles of dill
upside down in the attic
small-footed myotis
Endless Mountains
the Susquehanna’s waves
echoing in its rocks
asbestos shingles
the ghosts of the past swaying
on the clothesline
giving in to the heat lightning
the different things
we do with our hands
crow and I
a speck of mountain
gliding over the mountain
bald eagle
a fragment of night
crossing the deep cyan
a crow
middle age
the trees
I never planted
stratus afternoon
the shadowsoftness
of antler on skull
the time it takes
for stars to cross the lake
summer
