That Certain Morning

(November 26, 1990)

Oh
sluggard sun—
brown cows, frigid,
huddle upon frosted grass;
sheep, thickening for the oncoming,
scatter around, nudging the reluctant ground;
and cars, jeeps, pickups line the road.
Blast—thunder rolls round the hills.
Crash—as barren shrubs tremble,
the heaving buck leaps:
blind animal fear
is the
goad.

E. L. Core
