The Hollow (10)

Dave BontaContemplative

birch roots turned stilts

a hollow in the shape of a stump

desire path

deer cutting across this trench of a trail

raised high in a claw of upturned roots an ordinary rock

smooth sandstone

the empty seas of the first great extinction

Dave Bonta

Learn by heart: tap a gap

a in the shape of a stump
this of a trail
