Thirty-seven.

37

And geese fly over like the sound of my alarm clock.

While the mysterious sounds of Seneca guns pique 

my mind. I wonder have I heard them and am 

convinced I have but was unaware they were what 

they were. Perhaps I thought it was only a fallen tree. 

A deer hunters missed report. The thunderous 

applause of a relief package being passed. The gavel 

on this horrible year. Deep. Hollow. Distant. Sometimes 

lights appear in the distance. Now I am convinced they

have always been a part of my life. There. Looming 

just outside of vision. Like geese, flying over.

Like my alarm clock being pounded into the

nightstand. The lamp going over. Well, 

that explains the lights anyway.
