Where Crickets Roll Leaves

" Where Crickets Roll Leaves "

by Suzán Jiván aka Mom-Mom Suzán

for Kenny, Jimmy & Eric

As
a
visit-
or
nesting
on
a
ledge
next to a mining bee buzzing
where crickets roll leaves
into tropical regions
with toughened forewings
when metamorphosis
was incomplete
and needlelike
as inconspicuous
cylinders laid singly
or in mass
folded flatly
in damp plants
along green
grasslands...
