The Black Bird On The Cable Wire

there is this one
bird on the
cable
wire
connecting two distant
posts

behind is the sun rising like a cape of so much light

below are the green fields of rice
in rectangles

it is the first day of October
and not so cold yet

the path that i am taking stretches
kilometers

tall grasses in random lines are here
beside me.
