another_idyll_as_summer_ends
birdmad The calendar says summer is over by a week...the sun is not quite ready to agree

glaring down,

like a combination of a fever and that feeling of being watched

but even then the breeze shifts,
cool across the back of my neck,
sending down a slight chill, like the combined low-cycle buzz and cold metal of a barber's shears

overlapping sounds:
the rumble and blare of the freight trains a mile or so away
the rattle of diesel engines and the rush of traffic,
the faint, but still audible whisper of the afternoon breeze

watching the hummingbird light on the little purple flowers
flit
flit
flit

the one other constant in this portion of universe which i occupy besides change is the smoke of my cigarette
bouncing off of heaven
like a prayer not sent with suficcient postage

daydream.
drift.
