The World Outside
On the kitchen wall a flash
of shadow:
swift pilgrimage
of pigeons, a spiral
celebration of air, of sky-deserts.
And in counterpoint, from other windows,
the effort to be merry--ay, maracas!
--sibilant, intricate--the voices wailing pleasure,
arriving perhaps at joy, late, after sets
have been switched off, and silences
are dark windows?
