the cottage is gone

first termites then bulldozers

memories homeless

same walks from my house

loved ones on the computer

permanent limbo

James' backyard

hammock under spruce
small absent-minded clouds drift

towards oblivion

knife-edge ridge, clouds far below
solitude arrives

levitating hawk

floats above steep-walled canyon
