Dead Serene
almost midnight
streets aglow
lanterns flickering
but why who knows
rustling leaves
in roadside gutters
cats a prowling
no birds tonight
foxes squealing
calling their young
dogs a barking
secure indoors
some people
on their way home
wobbly walking
talking and laughing
me all alone
sat staring and watching
taking in all the life
knowing really i am not alone
