Little Egypt

Counterclockwise

a vulture circles

the point of emptiness

rising above a rotting corpse

once a deer

diluted with distance

until it smells of musk

while at the foot

of a river bluff

in underbrush

a brown thrasher

gets off with the work

of flipping hickory hulls

for the flutter of insect life

as a solicitor fossicks

among old files

in uncontested solitude

the long sifting

of a legal process

drop it drop it

pick it up

pick it up

cover it up

stet

stet
