2017.07.27: inclusion

ever widening
must the circles we traverse
or our world implodes

2017.07.26: siesta?

hazy summer days

sapping energy and will

we laze around dazed

six in the morning
cars from all directions wait
traffic light takes break

two different beats
steady cadence of footfalls
lungs gasping for air

cool sounds that we hear
echoing through underpass
mark of our passing

here when we are here
gone when we are gone

triple digit heat
runners – cyclist – panhandlers
life continues on

loud snap – rush of air
grey kite warning stray walker
“stay away from nest!”
