on the road with Dali -- J.A. Spahr-Summers

Per-spec-tive

caught
in a dali moment
just outside of wichita
just after dark in kansas
a ballerina of the cornfield
not far up ahead the
hot red hail of tail lights
just up ahead
a white tail deer pirouettes
in a puff of steam
just like this
as the hot blood trips
the frigid air
in my headlights
a strangely beautiful arc
of crimson red

"Looks like a porcupine."

"Looks like a pine cone."

"Pine needles sticking out."
