How to See Deer
-- by Philip Booth
Forget roadside crossings.
Go nowhere with guns.
Go elsewhere your own way,

lonely and wanting. Or
stay and be early:
next to deep woods

inhabit old orchards.
All clearings promise.
Sunrise is good,

And fog before sun.
Expect nothing always,
find your luck slowly.

*

things even out. Be
careless of nothing. See
what you see.
