  TABLE

  AUTO PERSON SKY TREE

  primer gray blue-green eyes passenger airplane curling white bark

  older than my grandfather a mole on the side of the nose uninterrupted blue sheet orange leaves

  the scrape of dry wiper on glass clears throat at beginning of sentences bee buzzes overhead the screaming of an angry morning bird

  burning oil heavy Old Spice cologne desert creosote rotting fruit

  molding seat stuffing smoke on the breath smoke from distant fireplace pine

  engine smoke a fresh carnation in the lapel saltwater mist cedar

  tough leather on aging seats rough chin nose-drying lack of humidity satin leaves

  crusty carpet silky fabrics biting cold on my neck supportive branches to sit on
