Possessive Perspectives
being number one
wiggles underneath the rock
a spade descends
being number two
hides behind the rock
a foot falls
being number three
lays on top of the flat rock
skin to stone
being number four
perches atop the rock
shells crack
being number six
flies over the rock
guano falls
*who are the beings [do you see them in your head? I didn't tell you!]
**how big is the rock [did you see it in your head? I didn't tell you.]
*** how did what happen, happen? in line 3 did you see it in your head?
**** haiku and senryu are in the moment verses which require
showing not telling and the bulk of the poem is always in the readers mind
not the poets pen.
