Neutrality


A gull surmounts the wind
and slides easily down the next dip,
keeping station a yard above the water
she’s inspecting for opportunity.
The air is like a glass of water, chilled
and dispensed from God’s refrigerator.
My dog is disappointed that his friend gave only a cursory sniff,
before rushing to the next adventure through the trees.
I am observant of the day, and its many reminders
that things after all exist
and will do with me what they please.
