the afternoon

the light

is at my door

calling

to me

with a hawk

and her long ragged cry

of spring and him and other things

I jump up to look and find the two high in the sky

circling

on the same current

together

and a bus goes by

and the clock continues to tick

but time has stopped

as I watch them spiral

through my sky

they become lost on the

horizon
