TERRITORIALITY
This spring dawn, birds begin their cacophony of chants,
all sex and violence, imprints of who will rule the yard,
whose offspring’s offspring will populate this patch of earth.
The morning traffic, too, has its cries, trills, alarms, greetings,
rich or thin, metallic, harsh, calls for submission, and dominance
over the interwoven nest of roads, ways, signals, and signs.
Richard Stimac has published a poetry book Bricolage (Spartan Press), two poetry chapbooks, and one flash fiction chapbook. In his work, Richard explores time and memory through the landscape and humanscape of the St. Louis region. He invites you to follow his poetry Facebook page: “Richard Stimac poet”.
