in the air (Wed 1:23 PM)
a cardinal, who then swoops
low over the grass
smoke from two sticks of Japanese incense
burning in an ash-filled Mason jar
the sound of Scott Robinson’s bari sax
with the New Art Orchestra
two little brown birds (maybe house sparrows)
heading for the empty feeders
a mid-sized jet
bound for Charlotte NC
the voice of a work at the perpetually
under-construction house next door
birdsong
so much birdsong
a truck engine
on the busy road nearby
one slowly descending maple leaf
a sense of anticipation
oh, and a hawk
