yellowbirds/blue sky

in #poem6 years ago

the sky here is
more like a screen
draping against the edge
of the world

while riding my
bike I like
to stand on the pedals
and stretch my neck towards it
open my mouth as wide
as I can and try to
consume the blue
whole

I pass a mailbox with
two Taxidermies
yellow birds sitting on
top , frozen in verb
stance

I pass the mango tree
that was once so ripe
a few weeks ago
the fruit hung heavy
abundant and tumbling
towards the canal
rainbow reflecting
in the water.
