JUXTAPOSING-longer title included

Creature from the black lagoon or God juxtaposing something wild just in time for me to cross its path
peacock’s crossed the line tail feathers insouciant on my side of road replaced the turkey vultures that previously unnerved

A wonderful Tanka my friend. When I work in the garden, three turkey buzzards circle overhead the entire time. They have waited three years now for me to fall down.
