The FAB&PP Poem of the Month for July 2017


Cape Cod Observations

the way the
clear clean
sunlight streaming
through different
windows in the silence of the
early morning
reveals the crumbs and dust motes
the cobwebs of neglect, the vast
spiderwebs dancing on
the surface of the high walls
 
walking
along the
beach parking lot
tracks
in the sand
at the edge of the
asphalt

ducks and
dogs snakes
and snails
cigarette butts
and children's
sneakers

the rip-rap
at the pathway
to the marsh

back
and forth
is a circle
all
the same
