slick slip-away of silence

[judih]

dark morning - merge and become
quiet on the set, ready for anything
then sudden slip-away of silence
trickle of drain water
dish shifts on rack
off in the distance, dirt-bike turns rowdy
neighbours give orders
clock clicks into tick-tick consistency
doors begin to close
mind begins its patterns
once again, gravity track is back
