If it wasn't…

By Christina Chin and Sarang Bhand

If it wasn't…

(i)

regular goshawk
camouflaged
in grape trellis

(ii)

jumping ahead
katydid and mind


(iii)

in the grip
of sharp talons
a tree shrew

(iv)

struggle ends
what remains --
is feathers


(v)

butterfly feeder
a missing friend

(vi)
left alone
in the garden
with thoughts
