• City Peace

    The wind howls through my window

    The neighbor’s heated argument is in stereo sound

    The dogs whine in a pitch that rivals nails on chalk boards

    Yet I cannot sleep without the city’s peace.

    and I cannot…will not…forget
    saturation a constant

    that refuses to disguise itself.

    It is a day built on opposites,
    light leaning against shadow,
    certainty dissolving into doubt,
