Phil Shils

deer in the headlights

the grey echo
of several deer

a school of minnows
in the trees
shadow and radar.

one straggler
a gangly fugitive

and me
the interloper
as though
startled in
an alley
urinating

absent

the fireflies disappeared
with the heat of late july

empty yards

i noticed after seeing
the airplane light
move from
one oak tree
to the next oak
tree branch

Next Poem
