sitting on the porch
staring at the line before me
a thread between the pole and the house
trying to give the image, her artistry its due
a living word salad
nuanced and repeating
refracting and reflecting
in on itself
the thesaurus no help
too precise, imperfect
to describe, to pay honor
the web, the fiber, the thread, the silk
did it shine, did it shimmer
did it glint, did it glimmer
did it glisten, did it glitter
in the sunlight
did the line gleam, did it sparkle
did it undulate, did it flicker
swaying in the breeze
on this hot summer afternoon
