Spent the weekend on a hike on the Juan de Fuca trail on Vancouver Island...a drama...

sombrio..


The spider makes it’s weary way
from the big toe
of my left foot
upwards in hairy exploration of my hairy leg
and i watch in awe at it’s progress

sitting on sombrio beach
the sun beats down
upon my left toe
as a winged thing of unknown species
alights upon it

from beneath a sleeping stone
a bug with
many legs and oval
manifold
scours across the hump of my
ankle bone

i gaze across the strait where
olympic mountains look
back at me
their jagged peaks and snow tops witness
the drama unfolding

the winged one helocopters off
to elsewhere whilst
the bug
tumbles legs akimbo from the slippery
slope of my extremity

the spider clambers ever upwards to the
peak of my knee
and halts for breath
and i godlyke in my power
blow him from his rest

graham...april..2004
