out to walk
before sunrise
to beat the heat
Monday
recycling trucks
collect the weekend
waste
on one of them
I glimpse
What if nothing
is considered
waste?
it wants
to play
what if
nothing
that happens
is
waste

a drear day
for a walk
I pass a man
his head in the cup
of his hands
his elbows anchored
on his window sill
his reverie for a moment
on me
I wave
he breaks his cup
we wave
we lift
a cup of cheer
