A crevice of light in the sky.
The Slavic man shouting into his cell, outside his car, in the night, echoing.

Our dog gamboling in drifts spindrift snow dolphin leaping.

Leaps of faith that say, "This is this; exalt!"
The pebble in my hiking boot that turns out to be a grain of (rock) salt.
Biblical pillars of shoveled detritus.
Naked branches.
The missing chickadee.
Muzzle in the shards of crystalline alabaster.
January.
