Early Saturday Afternoon

there is sanity to be found

among the alleys

and apartments of the city.

Walking the Neighborhood

a late night walk around

the neighborhood

filled with sounds

of the ordinary

are symphonies of

this new home.

neighbors passing

in the street

as green goes to red,

back again.

a trip to the pharmacy

to get a drink

before it becomes too late

and the body

settles in

as it readies itself

for morning.
