Tonight

by barnswallow - Capricorn

Strange night
a single passing car, outside,
and here,
no radio.

the far away is unimaginable
as it must be
as it so rarely is.

the close: 
is this Word.

& between, in a rustling stillness,
a curtain breathes from a window
lifts and returns...

I jump up in an empty room
& startle myself down a funneling fall.
