Tanka
by Jack Prewitt
summer migration--
the bogong moth fixated
on your window
waits with me
for your light to go out
an unlabled tin
rolls from Soups
to Veges
I hide it
from the shop staff...
under a cabbage
in my window:
a waning moon snared
in banksia limbs
I search for you
in tangled sheets
late spring
seedlings you planted
grow invasively
already you plan
next year's garden
