Out the Window

Out the window,
diagonals and horizons
are riding hard between
the transparent.

The bold porch wrapping
a clean bow before the
grated metal fence in
the neighbor's yard.

The aluminum honeycombs
throwing shapes of
discord into the levels.

Green flutters spatter
against the breezes.
Flaunting more a blur 
than a shape.

Dark ominous wrinkles
of tall trunks,
wind upward and out of frame.

The stiff softening into 
pattering emerald fingers
stretching into the great space.
