BREAD LINE

by Joanna Gilman Hyde

The Hawk Outpost 5:20pm

I am kneading in line

with The Low Line of Lichen

wrapped around Our Scraggly Apple

matching up with The Linear Extension of Scrub Spruce

against which The Apple’s Naked-tipped Tops

reach for The Sky’s Haze of Pink

I put My home made dough

to rise
