sounds of the country
In the far distance I hear freeway noises
there is a jet plane arriving from the east
my dog is chewing something loudly
probably a walnut
he fancies trying to break his teeth
a car has accelerated rapidly on I-70
I hear a tin-like barking sound
try to identify it
sounds like a screaming robot that is being dragged and tagged
a tiny bird tweets to my right
another jet plane
I look up
It looks like a toy up there
makes a sound like distant thunder
train whistle grabs my attention
five or six pulls
Motorcycle revs up
life in the country of Kansas
uh-oh
a siren
police or fire
lots of honking
