                                                              tune up

                                after the rain
                and the paths still wet
                the window can now let open
                to clear the condensation
                from the bedroom at the level

                of treetops and roofs
                the network is already gathering
                pre-call testing testing
                three notes – pigeon pigeon

                                throat-clear – mute
                                long   lift-glide-land
                                coda

                                              ough/
                                              ourrrgl/
                                              ough

                                                              time lapse
                                                              chapter lapse
                                                              three-call crow
                                                              oblique cut-off

                                                                                  yjour/yjour/yjour

                                              while seagulls climb and
                                swoop each other silently

                                                              baton taptaptap
