Motionless on the plateau next to a steel blue semi
Flanked by a rock wall and shallow ravine
Still line of cars, a frozen mechanical army of ants
Stretches under a bridge and out of my vision
A circling hawk
loops around a single cloud
The wind is whistling
The trees bloomed last month
Bright green is turning deeper
They are all swaying
The light azure sky
Like unrequited love's eyes
Seems infinity
A sudden blast of sound from behind me
Gives me a startle, the blue semi
Has already passed the bridge
I release the brake and drive home
