3.30.2019 / 8:51 a.m. / 44 degrees by John L. Stanizzi

Plucked from their hangers, two suet feeders have vanished;
odd that they would remove the entire feeder, take it with them,
noshing through the grid for tiny a morsel of peanut butter mix,
daylilies sprouting, and still no heron, who came the first day then never again.



John L. Stanizzi’s books are Ecstasy Among Ghosts, Sleepwalking, Dance Against the Wall, After the Bell, Hallelujah Time!, High Tide – Ebb Tide, Four Bits, Chants, and Sundowning. His work has appeared in Prairie Schooner, American Life in Poetry, New York Quarterly, and others. John teaches at Manchester Community College in Connecticut.
