light coming into blue whiteness
of sky above ridge
sound of unseen towhee chirping in
right foreground
to bring into concealed names the
removal of a word
ordinary man’s forearm in trying
to sound the alarm
woman on left carrying boy out of
classroom yelling
legs kicking teacher standing
there holding a snake
blinding whiteness of sun next to
shoulder of ridge
shadowed swell lines moving toward
mouth of channel
