Kitchen table
Bullets and cans
of crushed tomatoes

Receding tide
Legs of a
shorebird

Revelation
The bay flats
at low tide

Confession
The bay flats
at low tide

Consolation
The bay flats
at low tide

Fine condition
Old man reading
an old book

Poor condition
Old man reading
an old book

Rare find
Young man
reading an old book

Raindrops still
on my glasses
Goodbye note on the counter

Stallions
rear and rise
Morning shave

My birthday today
Highway
speed limit

Follow the highway
speed limit
A birthday today

Ignore that highway
speed limit
A birthday today

I am the highway
speed limit
A birthday today

Scoliosis
That hollow pole
in my back

Seaspray
Playing violin
at the ocean

End of
the pier
Wind lifts
