Last night finding
Jupiter with the telescope

its variable moons
like hesitations,

state a thing
and the assumption

is it is just what
was said–

No. What else is behind
the bright bold object?

Quails in the tall grass
a plume of dust when they alight

late heat and altocumulus
the changing of hours

kicks up a breeze
two hawks pass high

in a straight line
did the sky move

or did I?
Question the vector
