Sound of Wave in Channel: 7.21
light coming into fog against invisible
top of ridge, blue jay on redwood fence
in foreground, sound of wave in channel
starting from this concept,
anything that is not
on the contrary, condition
everywhere, sequence
sunlit white cloud above shadowed ridge
pelicans flapping across toward channel
