In the summer night, Gray waits by the porch light, sticky webbed toes against window screens, belly pale and soft.

Such a long tongue...

Snap!

Moth for supper.

Black holds secrets in summer: night-sky Black underneath-stones Black.

Black that fits and swoops.

Deep, wild Black that stares from the eyes of a surprised raccoon.

Black in my own eyes, staring back.

FALL

In FALL, Green is tired, dusty, crisp around the edges.

Green sighs with relief:

I've ruled for so long.

Time for Brown to take over.

Brown, fat and glossy, rises in honking flocks.

Brown rustles and whispers underfoot.

Brown gleams in my hand: a tiny round house, dolloped with roof.
