open windows and other inane stuff
I cant say
I totally remember
what
the reminders of
'cycles' and 'knuckles'
was
for
I do think
I know
where
I heard them
its summer in the city
all hot and gritty
windows need to be opened
screens
put in
to keep
the flying things
out
the cats need to sit in the sun
be admired
and
occasionally catch a moth
we have a tree right outside the living room windows
which seems to be home
to every
Miller moth
on the
UWS of Manhattan
eventually
it gets too hot
the AC gets installed
then
there is
only
one window
for the cats to share
and
its closed
I should get a gold in digressing
bear with me
I am getting there
our friends
B&D
who own the building
recently sold their
'weekend' home in Connecticut
filled with art
both in the house and on the property
one of the outdoor pieces
not such a great photo taken with Instagram because I keep forgetting to take a photo with the BIG camera
now resides
outside
underneath
a window
in
our
living room
there's a wrought iron fence
(and gate)
enclosing it
should someone decide to try
to steal it
they'd better have a crane
its
that
heavy
anyway
its presence has caused many to stop in their tracks and admire it
vocally
muttering to themselves
whaaaa?
huh?
or
to their companions
did you see this?
how long has it been there?
hey, I never noticed that before
etc
voices carry
hello, we're in here,
we can hear
(and see)
you
(we live on the ground floor)
(we live on the ground floor)
it can be very comical
one evening two men stopped to wonder out loud
how it had got inside the fence
eventually
they did notice the gate
I do believe
this led them
to discuss bicycles
or
maybe it was some other people
as for the
knuckles
I am still working it out
can you believe the milage I am getting out of two words?
I noticed this vendor at yesterday's street fair
I am not sure
if that's a comment
on lack of interest
at his/her wares
or
just the way he/she holds
the newspaper
I'll leave you to decide
thanks for coming along
it really is more fun with you!
