clicking
       clanking
                clapping


clashing

coffee cups echoing in the early morning


soothing
         sounding
                   speeding


swerving

driving down an empty highway

the moon is sinking in the sky
the jazz on the radio like a lullaby


sleeping
          speaking
                     sqeaking


sinking

tired eyes wandering through the kitchen
birds outside perched on fences to listen


failing
         forcing
                             finding


falling

empty glasses sitting silent by the window
vases full of wilting flowers in baby blue and indigo


watching
           wandering
                         wondering


writing


wanting
