#Haibun Monday–Shimo No Koe–First Frost’s Voice #dVerse Poet Pub
A Silence Observed I extend my left forearm during tai chi in the dark living room. That’s when I notice how quiet it is outside. No chirping. No tritonal repetitions of that saw-like cacophony.

Empty Intimacies The towers of the George Washington Bridge straddle the traffic. The constant drone outside our motel room is our own urban surf. Inside, a musty smell from the carpet complements the faded wall-paper peeling at the corners. We dress. Step outside into a hot, sticky August night. Like the last two…
