light pink line of cloud above black plane of ridge

shadowed bird flapping toward edge of redwood fence

think of trying to bring into focus something there

material close to the phrase makes it repeat shadow

remembering diagonal shaft of light slanting across

invisible ridge yellow of sun on surface of channel

blinding white edge of sun on horizon next to ridge

shadowed line of swell approaching mouth of channel

1.6.

light comes into pale blue sky above plane of ridge

red orange edge of sun in bamboo leaves above fence

possibly find its way into words followed by effect

evident from tone passage against the end of seeing

say the same thing twice opposite of making it this

more than where the subject could be made “subject”

blinding whiteness of sun next to shoulder of ridge

vertical yellow line of light in motionless channel

1.5

cloudless pale blue sky beside black plane of ridge

orange of sun rising through shadowed bamboo leaves

light under star-filled sky letter a few days since

arrival of word happens as present which is to come

hand glancing back to being grasped as act grounded

present all the way back to the idea of speaking it

blinding whiteness of sun next to shoulder of ridge

parallel swell lines moving toward mouth of channel

1.4

curved edge of cloud in pale blue sky next to ridge

two sparrows perched on feeder beside redwood fence

landscape as demonstration held before actual event

picture the same day simplified legs uncrossed feet

left then right foot walking through pools on trail

reflection of cloud branches overhead pace of sound

pinkish edges of grey cloud above shoulder of ridge

shadowed swell lines moving toward mouth of channel

1.3

white lines of clouds in pale blue sky beside ridge

blue jay landing on edge of redwood fence by feeder

as light follows relations between different places

line the length of then in the direction of present

missing a bird or two the way the line makes a grid

two sets of three telephone wires in blue white sky

yellow red orange of clouds above shoulder of ridge

white line of wave breaking across mouth of channel

1.2

light in window opposite unmade yellow and blue bed

patterns of leaves on branches moving on white wall

evening coming home works with much of this obvious

over what was once that could be more than presence

thinking about looking at landscape from a distance

light in the room through the window made of shapes

what circle of sun in cloud above shoulder of ridge

shadowed line of swell approaching mouth of channel

1.1

light grey whiteness of clouds above shadowed ridge

sparrows pecking up seeds from bricks next to fence

place in the world can pass from nothing which here

follow one toward variant form of potential passage

one on right whose right index finger bends surgeon

one on left wearing aviator glasses sweater his son

sun comes up through clouds above shoulder of ridge

shadowed white lines of waves breaking into channel
