In August the dogs dodge the fall
of black walnuts in the back yard,
the baseball-heavy pods landing
even at night like the home team rallying.

The three inch palmetto bug cockroach
drops from the hairy stalks of palmetto
trees on the heads of couples leaving the bar.
Light like a lawsuit under an unironed linen shirt.
Nicely done! An understatement of Lilliputian proportions. Reminiscent of the view from beneath Gulliver’s corpulent buttocks!
