sun beams through a sunken shack,
over the silhouette of the cock
weathervane, looming
out back.
Thick misshapen fence,
Old gate opens with a sigh
dead yellow jackets
floating in the crooked bird bath
Grass overgrown, dry.
Bent stake in the ground
faded leash still attached.
Nest in the branches
eggs never hatched.
