the measure of open space



Here and there
you build a
fitting structure

to rhyme
with what's around it

             the
             rocks
                    the meadow grass
                                     the trees
                                          the water

and learn to
leave intact
the wet roots
of the swamp oak
                    and the alder

& the trails
of the deer
                    up the ridgeway
used these
30,000 years
