the crowds all gone home
sleek crows forage
through bits of bright litter -
Dandelions
stinging nettles,
young maples like weeds -
the mystery behind
your manicured lawns
trumpet vines
burst through the tarmac -
bangers on the corner
argue on their iPhones
a horn blows in traffic
the texture of twine -
high summer sun bakes
the brick wall
a dusty-red wren
perched on a pail -
heat shimmer blurring
the hot-tar roof
a musty smell from limestone
bits of broken glass -
the stain from fallen walnuts
stuck to our hands
