Uchechukwu Onyedikam / Christina Chin

1

filming 

a water spout

at the

harbour 

a catfish...

lands on my

windshield

 

2

silence by

the river

the man

and a bear

fishing…

the salmon

takes 

a leap for

sunlight

 

3

bite the

bait —

a familiar

excitement

a forest

ranger

tap tap tap

on his

shoulder
