as the light falls

splashing its last burst ’cross the neighborhood

before dimming to sleep

& letting a calm chill take o’er

atop the rocks

gazing o’er the fence

@ the highway still being built

expression inscrutable

mouth iron rigid

under the sunset’s final glow

like a spotlight on the last encore

bright yellow on bright yellow —

the taciturn fire hydrant

on a cloudy august weekend

sunlight breaking thru the clouds

shining on the golden leaves

proclaiming the coming o’ autumn

Ich habe dich beim Verstecken erwischt, im Rauch, Rauch, Rauch.

Ins Meer, aus dem Feuer.

Das ganze Brennen…

¿Was wirst du tun, wenn du am Wasser bist?
