Kabul

faint hues arose from a distance
as i follied beyond the grave gestures
of a calming mirage

faintly showers began
to sprinkle over the seasonal earth
thee past time frawned above it all
shattering sound near a mustered seed patch

coarse branches crawled over soiled nest
tampering with the birds homeland 
twigs fell to the ground draw string hung
cracked eggs settled underneath the oak
just in time for a foxes lunch
