Yellow Flowers

~Yellow Flowers~

 

Her killer

watches from the high ancient shore

and grins while fossils drip
from the seaside cliff.


A handful of beachcombers

search for small marvels in the sand.


He's the only one who sees her hair

tangled in the bull kelp a few yards from shore.

 

His getaway trail is a mangle

of broken, yellow, flowers.


The tires of his car

spin a few times

through the meadow.
