tree becomes log, which becomes fungi food: treeness transformed.
Dead Wood [Haiku]
3

diamond glimmer
on the water:
summer sun

there is no defect
in the sunflower that
cheers one’s spirits.

ringed by city, a green oasis hides slyly.

the big red bug attracts attention it doesn’t want.

dead roots:
sinuous as a river,
luxuriant as hair.
