My Math

Two egrets and three gulls are five, ten with shadows, doubles of the night in daylight, plus two for the red hawks watching. This is my math, just as I was multiplied by the bear and her cubs crossing at Chama, by the swarm of winged ants and the warblers that came frenzied for them. If I wait for the fall migration, if I am my integer while being stalked by bacteria, I might calculate an uneasiness of earth, including the skink that hides in the dryer vent, a continent about to shift in its chair, but I am impatient, still counting deliberately on my fingers and stars.
