Currently Ambling Aimlessly

The

sun

and the

sky today

look like a flashlight

trying to shine through a thick wool

blanket, and a lone falcon or hawk (I can never

remember the difference) is hunkered down

out of the wind on a sagging telephone

line that hangs parallel to the two-lane highway I’m

currently ambling aimlessly

along from one no-

where special

to the

next

and  

the 

next

and the 

next, it seems,

ad infinitum….
