Hammock Under

hammock under
rain drops hitting
a blue tarp

branches reach
under the gentle lift
and fall and crinkle


is there a mouse on the line
after three am arrives
i'm finally sleepy

late morning next to the pinksters
on top of a cliff
watching it all bake
lightly salted

the night comes
again

with the night in it

pulsing as if
from a light on a house
in the distance
