 The Unintended

to begin

it is an inevitability

that the sun shedding angrily will

kill the green pleasure of 

my brilliant hill

its ghost sun quietly circles below

in a dreamy caressing whiteness of its own

I become an unintended dreamer

ducks suddenly skyrocket from a puddle 

of a pond 

I am caught up in a vicious glare

of my own doing

they curve away drop from me

their furiously beating wings

begin and end in seconds 

from one side of the road

to the other 

they glide

to another pond

no bigger than

the other 

yet

no less

essential
