A line cast, a hope followedFriday, May 13, 2005
The cat's nails drag across the door.
Dog whines, a louder echo
Of the faint cries from the vaux swifts
That have nested in the brick chimney.
All else is a waiting silence.
Still, you don't speak
And gradually I become the void
Vibrating in our ears...the low hum of a train
Idling at the station,
The dial tone on a displaced phone.

Vibrating in our ears...the low hum of a train
Idling at the station,
The dial tone on a displaced phone.
