Clyde Ahote's Haikus from the Wilderness
The Baker Wetlands
on the first Sunday of fall
where tallgrass stands tall
A chorus of kaws
the white noise of the blackbirds
circling the tree
Cattail cotton haze
a girl throws a crabapple
into the green sludge
The sunflowers turn
a faded shade of amber
in late afternoon
Jennifer Brothers
considers a sunflower
with her camera
the young man marches
into the marshes wearing
ecogaloshes
Wetlands boundary
follow the raccoon's footprints
to Wakarusa
What then should we do
when we finally make it
to the outside world?
the click-clack of feet
following the red wood road
there's no place like home
