Notes:
I can't sleep…
Gravity-Defying Photos of Determined Dogs Catching Frisbees in Mid-Air by Photographer Claudio Piccoli. Don’t miss his other shots here.
The Saturday morning meadowlark
came in from high up
with her song gliding into tall grass
still singing. How I’d like
to glide around singing in the summer
then to go south to where I already was
and find fields full of meadowlarks
in winter. But when walking my dog
I want four legs to keep up with her
as she thunders down the hill at top speed
then belly flops into the deep pond.
Lark or dog I crave the impossible.
I’m just human. All too human.
~ Jim Harrison, from “Solstice Litany” in Dead Man’s Float
