It is now, the night
hours deep and the
air a conduit for
train and river sounds
that my body slows
with the day's efforts
in my limbs, my bones,
my breaths coming
deep and without thought
like someone else working
the bellows of my chest,
thoughts and head-chatter
gone slack like a sail
when the wind quiets
and the water stills.
