a turtle sniffs
a box turtle shell
of blue spotted turtles
* * *
life out of a silly overnight bag
is getting me disoriented as much as sleeping
peasants with Mrs. Kerry form a turtle shell squall line
behind golden marsh hay, life out of a silly
overnight bag is disorienting
the sleeping peasants with Mrs. Kerry on a turtle shell
a squall line behind golden marsh hay life
out of a silly overnight bag has me disoriented
with sleeping peasants or Mrs. Kerry
on a turtle shell squall line behind golden marsh hay
waiting to dive to the river woven into a pouch
a turtle sniffs a petroglyph figure squall line
of blue spots painted on sunglasses
with slumber waiting to dive to the river
a petroglyph figures sunglasses woven into a pouch
are a squall line sleeping with the turtle
sniffing blue spots painted into waiting
that dives to the river petroglyph figure
sleeping behind sunglasses in a box
woven into a pouch a turtle sniffs
the awaited dive to the river
squall line of blue spots
paints a petroglyph figure on sunglasses
woven into a pouch with a squall line
of sleeping blue turtles sniffing a spotted box
