Chenopodium album, upper marlboro
Am playing around with a 10X rig at home right now and aiming at some common species. Here is a seed pod of lamb's quarters. The round objects may or may not be what they call glandular hairs. This is unclear to me.
Love for Other Things
It’s easy to love a deer
But try to care about bugs and scrawny trees
Love the puddle of lukewarm water
From last week’s rain.
Leave the mountains alone for now.
Also the clear lakes surrounded by pines.
People are lined up to admire them.
Get close to the things that slide away in the dark.
Be grateful even for the boredom
That sometimes seems to involve the whole world.
Think of the frost
That will crack our bones eventually.
