Ivy, for scaling.
Iceplant, for creeping.
Green shields, green spears.
A family lies sleeping.
New runners, fresh shoots.
Ivy, for screening.
Downslope a man kneels.
Iceplant, for hedging.
Blast-furnace summers.
Tinderbox evenings.
Ivy, for braiding.
Iceplant, for weaving.
Hazy sun, sooty sky.
What’s the radio saying?
Ivey and iceplant.
A woman keeps pacing.
A house on a hillside.
Dry annuals flaring.
Ivy, for grasping.
Iceplant, for reaching.
