it's no wonder the squirrels moved out

the tree i'd watched
over days of summer
and the leaves that massed
for months
protective of thin branches
soft stems
mossed bark
revealed in late october
the body of a man
astride a branch
supported by branches
face down
above the park
where days were swan filled
for a while
abstract image
