Days pass too quickly
evenings in the blink of an eye
paint moments in indelible ink
so memory doesn’t think them a lie.

Track marks of char
line hilltops
singed of evergreen,
the fire’s path
a blackened trail of breadcrumbs.
Vultures perch on a redwood fence
taking orderly turns
ripping flesh
from roadkill skunk,
his noxious fumes
floating miles
down canyon,
an aromatic middle finger
to his fate.
Yerba Buena mint
and rosemary flowers
bask in February light;
blankets of mustard
woven through a loom
of vineyards
shimmer and hum and buzz
with honeybees
dusted in winter.

Golden beets
the size of a fat toddler’s forearm
buried in smoky wood coals
peeled and sliced thin,
topped with a schmear
of crème fraîche
spiked with shaved horseradish root.
