for my eyes only it seems

late winter
irritation
hang me
with my winter scarf

hover
black and silver

when i pass
a strangers house
they pull the blind
polished window
life alive
unchecked
i must have done
one thing right

above their rooftops
blinking lights

for my
always watching
neighborhood eyes

it lingers
through spring
gray snow
i see things
they dont believe
over shoulder
skyward
three directions
walking through
window rows

lest i even lift a finger
waste a bitter breath
