Another Rubber Tree Plant
across the endless
desert pavement
six feet dance a
rapid two step
keeping the mirage
alive in mind
that there is
another side
darting and dodging
clouds that darken
and fall to earth
while passing
cracks of quakes
made evading
rush hour
rushing
not mistaking making
a b-line for grassy
trees reaching
the edenic
opposite of the other
now to stop and
gasp grasping
knowing now
an ant
recants the
heroic crossing
of a sidewalk in summer
