Play in the deep baritone barking
of large un-neighborly dogs
while little birds chime in with
their softer sound and the crowing
caws of my stalker or perhaps
conductor checking in with a quick
wave of his large dark wing
then is gone like a shadow
of a granted wish
the dogs are now silent
as the little birds continue their song
and the quiet whispers of a cawing
in the distance……
