brightness
in a corner of the cloud
lone gull

lockdown standoff
a pigeon on the bird feeder
trying to eat its own weight
in the seed I bought for sparrows.
I scare it off.
But it returns
waits on the willow branch.
It can see me in the kitchen
and it's a waiting game.
Am I so petty
I enter a staring match
with a bloody pigeon?
Yes. Yes I am.
