Las Vegas May 14, 2013

Another triple digit day,
the wind blows through the neighbor's oak tree
the bird
cool down in their nests
waiting for evening.
A Lonely Afternoon in Las Vegas

Another lonely afternoon,
watching the wind blow through a neighbor's olive tree,
watching thin scattered clouds move across the blue sky,
and watching cars drive past.

Another lonely afternoon,
listening to the area fan blow
and feeling its cool air on my arms.

Another lonely afternoon,
missing my mother
and writing poetry.
