ㅤ The kingfisher is aimed
plummeting deftly—tiny splash
Ever a bellyflop?

—§ —

I shake my head no
my dog stands rooted parkward
the court of appeals

—§ —

bowing to gravity
a meteor burns to dust
Fleur wished for a bike

Ostracized! How still to stay in the loop?
I'll find some method yet to overhear;
or an ally or mole, a social buccaneer,
a snitch
who can be induced to leak the scoop…
