ECHOES


A piano going “Blink, blink, blink” -
a cold silver butter knife like
blinking sound going  through  
open autumn afternoon windows ….
A bowling ball rolling down
a well waked wooden floor, but it
only hits 9 pins - leaving one standing ….
A car horn beeps, “Beep! Beep! Beep!”
It’s from the  angry driver
in the car right behind my car ….
I’m too slow for her - I guess ….
As I’m aging I’m hearing
more and more echoes of
anger and anxiety ….
I guess I’m getting too slow
for too, too many people.
