turn right at the end of the path

if you go straight

i tell the two women in their hats

and matching

pink jerseys

you'll hit water,

i point through the tunnel

of green trees,

but if you turn at the end

of the path, to the right

you'll circle

around to the tower

where you can see

the wildlife

more clearly. a short climb

up to the platform.

thank you, they say, and

move on.

as you do.
