Narrowing Tracks
Grit flies from spinning rubber, the traffic is edging through roads, narrowed, by the plowed and pushed aside. Curb-side snow remains; solid humps turn brown, in an un-melting light. A lone chicken hawk circles an iced-over acre of snaking roadway, its black track attracts the birds eye, as if it were the contrail of an elongated rat, stretching into a bolt- hole of frozen...

The Narrowing
Glowing days that were once red-cheeked and ripe with promise, Are narrowing like tall candles in a church window, Tapering from the golden stand and the sturdy base, To the glorious flame and the ever fading light.
